Marjorie Taylor Greene’s daughter rejected speculation that Greene plans to run for president in 2028. Greene also denied the report and is preparing to resign from Congress amid a public break with President Donald Trump.
Lauren Greene Sanders said she was proud of her mother, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, and later called speculation that Greene’s resignation was driven by a possible 2028 presidential run “a lie.” Greene also denied that she intends to run for president, saying she had never said she wanted to and had laughed off the idea when it came up.
The article describes Greene’s recent break with Trump over his handling of the government shutdown and his reluctance to release records related to Jeffrey Epstein. Greene’s resignation statement referred to the Epstein files and criticized Republicans, including Speaker Mike Johnson. Trump withdrew his support for Greene after she criticized him and called her a “traitor.”
