Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Georgia, is considering dropping her party over their treatment of President Donald Trump’s voter base.
The congresswoman joined The Daily Mail via a phone interview to reveal his displeasure with the Republican Party, and how she is considering breaking away.
“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,” she said. “I think the Republican Party has turned its back on America First and the workers and just regular Americans.”
Greene expressed fears that the GOP may be leaning more toward its neocon roots, preparing to abandon the energetic base that got Trump elected not once, but twice.
“I’m not afraid of [House Speaker] Mike Johnson at all,” she said, adding that those “good old boys” in charge of the party are the biggest obstacle to implementing the MAGA agenda.
“The 51-year-old lawmaker wants to stop foreign aid, continue to use DOGE to shave down government expenditures and waste, stop adding to the national debt and be on the look out for inflation,” DM reported.
“‘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,’” Greene said, exasperated. “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.”
“She has told the Daily Mail she senses the Georgia GOP is not adequately reading the voters in the state. MTG said she’s happy to not be on the ticket for the upcoming Senate race,” the article continued.
“Georgia is very much controlled. I call it the good ole boys network. It’s the donors of the state, they’re good-hearted people, but they are very low risk takers, so they end up always being talked into … really very weak moderate candidates,” the congresswoman explained. “It’s a very lukewarm, not exciting Republican ballot, you’re just not going to get the turnout there that’s needed, especially when we came off the last election and only won the state by 115,000 votes.”
She suggested that Republican women sometimes have a better idea of what voters want than men.
“I think there’s other women in our party that are really sick and tired of the way men treat Republican women,” Greene said. “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.”
“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,” she clarified.
Ultimately, the Georgia representative says she feels isolated from her colleagues due to her commitment to issues none of them seem to care much about.
“I’m going alone right now on the issues that I’m speaking about,” she lamented.
