Going from “future Republican star” to “barge” and “crazy woman.” Donald Trump publicly broke ties Friday night with Representative Marjorie Taylor Green. Once one of Trump’s staunchest allies in Congress, the Georgia Republican has distanced himself from his supporters, most notably by demanding the publication of Justice Department files on Jeffrey Epstein, who was convicted of sexual misconduct.
“I am withdrawing my endorsement and endorsement from “Congresswoman” Marjorie Taylor Greene, of the state of Georgia,” he wrote on the social network Truth Social. In recent weeks, Trump wrote, praising her track record, even though “all I see Marjorie do is complain, complain, complain!” »
He claims he changed his opinion “when I sent him a survey saying he shouldn’t run for senator or governor; he got 12% of the vote and had no chance.” “Unless, of course, he has my support,” he wrote in parenthesis, a thinly veiled political threat.
Trump has repeatedly defended the Georgian
However, Trump has kept most of his supporters in difficult positions: for example, Trump has expressed conspiracy theories on September 11, regarding school shootings, or linking large forest fires to space lasers. Their understanding was so strong that Taylor Greene was among the most likely vice presidential candidates during the election campaign.
“He told many people that he was upset that I no longer answered his calls, but with 219 members of Congress, 53 American senators, 24 Cabinet members, nearly 200 countries and the normal life I have to live, I can’t take calls from a raving crazy woman every day,” the president admonished, adding with a tone of heavy reproach: “She has gone so far to the left.”
In fact, in recent weeks, this woman from Georgia has expressed her objections to her mentor, and asked him to remain loyal to the principles of the “America First” movement he supports, by focusing on domestic issues. Most importantly, Marjorie Taylor Green was one of four Republicans in the House of Representatives who joined Democrats to try to force a vote on full disclosure of the Epstein files, an obstacle that was dragged down by Donald Trump. After asserting, during the campaign, that he would make public all documents regarding the death of the child molester and his network of friends, he later retracted his statement and called the case a “hoax”.
“Scaring others”
On Friday evening, Greene quickly responded to the president’s disgrace with a message posted on social media. “President Trump just attacked me and lied about me,” she wrote in X, where she posted text messages she sent to the president asking him to “investigate” the Epstein investigation. “I didn’t call him, but I sent him these messages today. Apparently, that’s what upset him. Epstein Files. » And concluded that he shot her “as an example, to scare other people.”
President Trump just attacked me and lied about me. I haven’t called him at all, but I sent this text today. This seems to be what pushed him over the edge.
Epstein Files.
And of course he chased me as an example to scare the others… pic.twitter.com/EcUzaohZZs

But on Instagram, the elected official still delivered his morning intervention on CBS, insisting that “the American people deserve total transparency regarding who was involved in this horrific act. I believe the victims. They and their attorneys have repeatedly told me that President Trump was NOT involved in this matter.”
For more than two years, Marjorie Taylor Greene has shared the life of Brian Glenn, an ultra-conservative journalist who worked for the right-wing outlet Real America’s Voice, which is highly influential among Trump voters. It was Glenn who, at the White House last February, asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky “why (he) wasn’t wearing a suit,” setting off a 15-minute, rarely violent verbal exchange by President Trump and his vice president JD Vance.
Last August, at an event with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, attended by Brian Glenn, Trump turned to DeSantis and pretended to ask: “Do you find Marjorie easy to get along with?” »
