Is a major Republican breakup on the horizon?
MAGA firebrand Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) signaled her time with the Republican Party could be coming to an end.
In a 45-minute exclusive phone interview with the Daily Mail, the congresswoman suggested her loyal relationship with the GOP is rapidly waning.
‘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,’ she revealed. ‘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 said.
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. (RELATED: Marjorie Taylor Greene Stirs GOP Infighting With Latest Attack On ‘Screeching’ Fox News Host)
Greene, one of Trump’s most vocal allies, insisted her allegiance to Trump remains intact, her ire is squarely aimed at GOP leadership, particularly Speaker Mike Johnson and what she calls the “good ole boys network” that she believes dominates state-level politics.
‘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,’ she said sounding frustrated.
Part of the problem, Greene said, was the party’s “lukewarm” ballot in her own state of Georgia.
Greene 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.
‘Georgia is very much controlled,’ she explained. ‘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.’
‘It’s a very lukewarm, not exciting Republican ballot,” she continued.
Without Trump on the ballot in the upcoming 2026 Senate race, the GOP could struggle to overcome Democrat Sen. Jon Ossoff, she said.
So far, a majority of polling of the race shows the Democrat with a double-digit lead, even in a potential match up against Greene.
On Monday, former longtime football coach Derek Dooley announced his entrance into the Senate race.
“I’m running because our state needs new leadership in Washington D.C., and professional politicians like Jon Ossoff are the problem,” Dooley said in a statement and video as he launched his campaign.
While this is his first run for public office, Republican sources confirmed to Fox News that he’s expected to have the endorsement of Gov. Brian Kemp, Georgia’s popular two-term conservative Republican governor.
