Shocking Rift: Trump Drops Marjorie Taylor Greene and Sparks MAGA Upheaval

A Sudden Split in the MAGA Movement
Former President Donald Trump has officially ended his support for Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, a key MAGA ally. The move has shaken the conservative base and sparked loud reactions across the right-wing ecosystem.
In a Truth Social post on Friday, Trump announced:
“I am withdrawing my support and endorsement of ‘Congresswoman’ Marjorie Taylor Greene.”
He also promised “Complete and Unyielding Support” to any conservative challenger running against her in the 2026 GOP primary, calling Greene “wacky,” “a lunatic,” and someone who “complains” constantly.
Why This Matters
The break is significant. Greene has long been one of Trump’s most influential defenders, helping mobilize MAGA voters and pushing his message through the hard-right base.
Key Impact Points
- A major crack has opened inside the MAGA movement.
- Trump risks losing support from Greene’s faction of conservative voters.
- The split may reshape GOP alliances ahead of the 2026 midterms.
- It highlights deeper disputes over policy, strategy, and transparency—especially around the Epstein files.
MAGA World Reacts
Strong Support for Trump’s Move
Several MAGA-aligned voices immediately backed Trump.
- Catturd, conservative commentator:
“I’ll support any primary opponent of Marjorie Taylor Greene… I’m sick of hearing her bullshit every day.” - Laura Loomer, activist:
Celebrated Trump’s decision and mocked Greene as “Marjorie Traitor Greene,” asking if she should move to Georgia to help defeat her. - Mark Levin, right-wing host:
“Everyone’s on to Marjorie Traitor Greene… I agree 100%. She’s nuts.”
But Some on the Right Push Back
- Evan Kilgore, a conservative commentator, sided with Greene:
“I stand with Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Greene. Who else?”
This refers to Trump’s efforts to unseat both Greene and Massie in 2026.
What Sparked the Trump–Greene Breakdown
Dispute Over Epstein Files
One major trigger: Greene backed a bipartisan push to force the Justice Department to release all remaining Jeffrey Epstein documents.
She told CBS Mornings she supports victims and said Trump’s stance on the matter is “a huge miscalculation.”
Trump hit back on Truth Social, calling renewed focus on Epstein “the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax.” He claimed Democrats were using it to distract from the shutdown and other issues, adding:
“Only a very bad, or stupid, Republican would fall into that trap.”
Despite this, Greene was one of only four Republicans who voted with Democrats to advance a petition to force disclosure of the full DOJ files.
Other Recent Breaks Between Trump and Greene
Greene has criticized Trump on several policy fronts:
- Housing: Opposed his 50-year mortgage plan, saying it’s not the right solution for affordability.
- Tariffs: Said his strategy was being poorly executed.
- Foreign vs. Domestic Focus: Urged him to prioritize U.S. issues over global conflicts.
- Inflation: Challenged his claim that inflation has eased.
- Healthcare: Pushed Republicans for a concrete plan to address rising costs.
- Gaza: Was the first GOP member to call the situation genocide.
What Greene Says Now
After Trump attacked her publicly, Greene responded on X:
- Accused Trump of lying about her.
- Said he is trying to “make an example” of her ahead of next week’s vote on the Epstein files.
- Claimed Trump is fighting harder to block the files than to help Americans struggling with inflation, foreign conflicts, and rising costs.
She added that she remains committed to “America First and America Only.”
Trump’s Full Explanation
Trump said Greene became upset after he told her she should not run for governor or senator, pointing to a poll showing her at 12%.
He claimed she was angry that he no longer returns her calls.
He also said conservatives are considering primaring Greene and promised he will give them full support if the right candidate steps up.
He accused her of going “Far Left,” including appearing on The View.
What Happens Next
The House is preparing to vote on legislation forcing the Justice Department to release all Epstein investigation files.
Speaker Mike Johnson has promised to bring it to the floor.
Greene is one of the leading voices pushing for disclosure.
Quick Summary
- Trump has withdrawn his endorsement of Marjorie Taylor Greene.
- MAGA leaders are split, revealing a deep fracture inside the movement.
- Disputes over the Epstein files, housing policy, tariffs, foreign policy, and GOP strategy fueled the break.
- The coming House vote on Epstein records is likely to intensify tensions.
