Donald Trump withdrew his support for Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and urged a Republican challenger to oppose her, after she criticized his policies and supported a petition to release Jeffrey Epstein-related files. Greene said Trump was trying to deter Republicans from backing the petition.
Trump said Greene had gone “far left” and called for her to be challenged in next year’s midterm election. He also claimed she was upset that he no longer returned her calls and said voters in her district were fed up with her. Greene said Trump was trying to discourage other Republicans from voting to release the Epstein files.
The dispute followed Greene’s criticism of Trump’s foreign-policy focus, his handling of the Epstein files, costs and tariffs. Greene was one of four House Republicans who signed a discharge petition with Democrats seeking release of the files, and she said she stood with the women affected. Trump has denied wrongdoing related to Epstein.
