'MAGA Is Dead': Marjorie Taylor Greene Accuses Donald Trump of Lies and Betrayal of His Supporters
Greene said Trump broke a 2024 promise to release Epstein-related files and accused him of lying to supporters as the MAGA movement fractures.
On Thursday, Former Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene declared 'MAGA is dead' at the Texas Tribune Festival in Austin, accusing President Donald Trump of betraying his campaign promises.
The pair's public falling-out escalated in 2025 over Trump's handling of Jeffrey Epstein-related files, prompting the president to withdraw his endorsement and label Greene a 'traitor' and a 'ranting lunatic.'
Greene argued that policies from both major parties contributed to a $40 trillion national debt, stating that leaders failing to uphold campaign promises become 'liars' and 'hypocrites' in a 'cult' of loyalty.
Describing herself as 'politically homeless,' Greene warned that many Americans have been 'cast aside' by the movement, though she emphasized her criticisms do not align her with Democrat policies.
Consulting with conservatives including Tucker Carlson and Kentucky Representative Thomas Massie, Greene sees no 'credible candidate' emerging for 2028 presidential elections.
