Donald Trump said he may back a challenger to Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, whom he criticized publicly. Greene responded by accusing Trump of attacking her and linked the break to her push to release the Jeffrey Epstein files.
Trump called Greene “Wacky Marjorie” and said he would endorse a challenger if the right person ran. Greene said Trump had “attacked me and lied about me,” and said her message to him about releasing the Epstein files had prompted his response. The article reports that the House was expected to vote on releasing the files the following week.
The article describes a dispute that had widened over several months. Greene had criticized Republican leaders over the government shutdown and health-insurance subsidies, and had urged Trump to focus more on issues at home than foreign affairs. Trump also said she had “lost her way” and “lost a wonderful conservative reputation.”
