Trump Withdraws Endorsement of Marjorie Taylor Greene

Trump withdrew his endorsement of Marjorie Taylor Greene, criticized her and said he could back a primary challenger. Coverage linked their dispute to her push to release Epstein-related files. Left-leaning outlets frame Trump's post as an attack, against the backdrop of Greene's policy disputes and Epstein-file push. Center outlets generally present both accounts and link the break to the Epstein files, with some stressing Greene's reported threats. Right-leaning outlets split: some cast Trump's move as a response to Greene's complaints or political shift; others foreground her criticisms of him or wider Republican divisions.
