Marjorie Taylor Greene again denied that she plans to run for president, saying in a post on X that she had never said she wanted the office. Her remarks followed reports about a possible 2028 bid and her recent announcement that she is resigning from Congress.
Greene said she had not announced a presidential run and described the demands of campaigning and her doubts about the political system as reasons she would not seek the office. She also accused TIME of making up reports that she plans to run, arguing that the outlet did not identify its sources. Those claims are Greene’s; the article does not include a response from TIME.
The article says Greene announced she would resign from Congress effective Jan. 5, 2026, prompting speculation about her future. It also notes that President Donald Trump, once described as having Greene’s strong congressional support, recently called her “a traitor.”
