Marjorie Taylor Greene Considers 2028 Presidential Run
Marjorie Taylor Greene is leaving Congress, but that may not be the end of her political ambitions. The Georgia lawmaker has privately told allies that she has considered running for president in 2028, according to two people who have spoken with her directly about the prospect and three others familiar with her thinking.
The possibility comes amid the dramatic rupture in Greene’s relationship with President Donald Trump, which contributed to her decision to announce on Friday that she would resign from the House of Representatives in January.
Greene did not respond to multiple calls and text messages seeking comment. A spokesperson for the congresswoman also did not reply to multiple requests for comment.
It was previously reported that Greene was telling people she wanted to run for president.
A hard-right firebrand who built her name as one of Trump’s fiercest defenders, Greene has become an unexpected critic of the President in recent months. She has challenged trump’s insistence that costs are falling, criticized his handling of the U.S.-Israel relationship,and,most provocatively,pushed him to force the Justice Department to release the Epstein files over his initial objections.
Trump responded by criticizing Greene publicly, a significant departure from his usual practice of avoiding attacks on allies.
