Marjorie Taylor Greene says she's not sure if GOP is ‘leaving me’

Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) is reassessing her role within the Republican Party following disagreements with fellow Republicans, including President Trump, on multiple issues.

The remarks — made during an interview with the Daily Mail — comes after Greene said Israel is conducting a “genocide” in Gaza; vocally pushed for the release of the documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, despite Trump pressing to move on from the story; and criticized the U.S. strike on nuclear facilities in Iran, among other positions.

Her contrast with many in the GOP is prompting her to question her perch in the party.

“I don’t know if the Republican Party is leaving me, or if I’m kind of not relating to Republican Party as much anymore,” Greene said. “I don’t know which one it is.”

“I think the Republican Party has turned its back on America First and the workers and just regular Americans,” she added.

The comments from Greene are the latest flash point in her timeline in Washington, which has seen her go from a pariah in the GOP to a close ally of the president, while at times being a thorn in the side of House GOP leadership.

Greene said she believes the Republican Party is drifting back to its “neocon” ways, with the people at the top of the group, the “good ole boys,” pushing against the MAGA agenda.

During her conversation with the Daily Mail, Greene advocated for stopping foreign aid, continuing using the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to slash the federal government, ceasing increasing the national debt and being aware of rising 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,” she said.

“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 added.

Perhaps one of the most striking breaks between Greene and Trump was over the release of the Epstein files, a debate that has inundated the party for weeks. When the president was trying to turn the page on the Epstein saga, Greene kept beating the drum, at one point warning that keeping the files under wraps would risk his support among the base.

“If you tell the base of people, who support you, of deep state treasonous crimes, election interference, blackmail, and rich powerful elite evil cabals, then you must take down every enemy of The People,” Greene wrote on the social platform X. “If not. The base will turn and there’s no going back. Dangling bits of red meat no longer satisfies. They want the whole steak dinner and will accept nothing else.”

The pair was also at odds over the U.S.’s strike on Iran, which the president touted as a success and Greene reacted to by saying there was: “a complete bait and switch to please the neocons, warmongers, military industrial complex contracts, and neocon tv personalities that MAGA hates and who were NEVER TRUMPERS!”

On foreign policy, Greene said “genocide,” a “humanitarian crisis” and “starvation” were occurring in Gaza — Trump also said starvation was happening — and she was one of two House Republicans to vote to cut off some aid to Israel.

Greene told the Daily Mail she believed there are “other women in our party that are really sick and tired of the way men treat Republican women,” naming Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), whom Trump nominated to be U.S. ambassador to the United Nations before he withdrew her name amid fears about the GOP’s slim House majority.

Greene accused Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) of being to blame for the situation.

“I think there’s other women, Republican women — and I’m just giving my opinion here — who are really sick and tired of them,” she said. “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 added.

Greene recognized the island she is on when it comes to some of the positions she has staked out, telling the Daily Mail: “I’m going alone right now on the issues that I’m speaking about.”

But she suggested that she does not mind plowing ahead solo, arguing that her reelection in her district has been because of her efforts and nobody else.

“I had to beat eight men and had to really whoop one in the primary, and I did, and the primary is everything in my district, and I did that by myself,” Greene said. “I didn’t do that with anybody’s help. Not President Trump, Mike Johnson.”
