Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is voicing her displeasure with the Republican Party.
The conservative firebrand who burst onto the political scene in 2021 and has been a constant presence in the House GOP and MAGA orbit since then told the Daily Mail in a 45-minute call this week that it may be time for her to step down.
“I don’t know if the Republican Party is leaving me, or if I’m kind of not relating to the Republican Party as much anymore. I don’t know which one it is,” Greene told the outlet.
Her loyalty to the president remains strong, she claims, but she sees flashing red lights indicating that the GOP is out of sync with the MAGA camp.
With seven million social media followers, it’s the audience she feels most connected to.
“I think the Republican Party has turned its back on America First and the workers and just regular Americans,” Greene said.
MTG senses that the GOP is reverting to its “neocon” past, and its leaders, the “good ole boys,” are formidable opponents for the true MAGA agenda.
The 51-year-old congresswoman is advocating for the elimination of foreign aid, the continued use of DOGE to curb government spending and waste, the avoidance of increasing the national debt, and the monitoring of inflation.
“Like what happened all those issues? You know that I don’t know what the hell happened with the Republican Party. I really don’t. But I’ll tell you one thing, the course that it’s on, I don’t want to have anything to do with it, and I, I just don’t care anymore,” Greene said.
Greene has utilized her big social media platform to publicly resign from her party and declare Israel’s conduct in Gaza a “genocide.” MTG has also used it to decry the United States’ involvement in foreign conflicts, as well as to query where the Jeffrey Epstein files are and why they have not yet been made public.
She claims that Republican women have a better understanding of the party than the “good ole males.”
“I think there’s other women in our party that are really sick and tired of the way men treat Republican women. I think there’s other women – Republican women – and I’m just giving my opinion here, who are really sick and tired of them. And the one that really got shafted was Elise Stefanik,” Greene said.
Stefanik was initially nominated by Trump to serve as ambassador to the United Nations, but her nomination was later withdrawn by the White House. Her nomination is reported to have been pulled due to the House of Representatives’ small majority.
“I mean, she got screwed by Mike Johnson, and she got screwed by the White House. I’m not blaming Trump, particularly. I’m blaming the people in the White House,” Greene said.
Greene has recently proposed a series of measures aimed at areas not generally addressed by the GOP.
The Georgia Republican firebrand also voiced frustration to The Daily Mail that more top figures in the Republican Party are not taking her seriously when she voices concerns about these issues.
In recent months, she has sponsored legislation to prohibit cloud-seeding and the release of chemicals into the atmosphere, to make English the official language of the United States, and to reduce capital gains taxes on homes, which she hopes would help make housing more affordable.
Greene told the Daily Mail that she doesn’t have strong GOP allies, particularly women, who support the causes she cares about.
“I’m going alone right now on the issues that I’m speaking about,” she admitted to the outlet while sounding “frustrated.”
