WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a shocking and very public political breakup, former President Donald Trump has officially withdrawn his endorsement of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, one of his loudest and most loyal supporters — after she accused him of trying to silence her over the controversial Epstein files.

The announcement, made in an angry Truth Social post late Thursday night, instantly sent shockwaves through the Republican Party, exposing deep rifts within the MAGA movement that once prided itself on unwavering loyalty to Trump.

Trump’s Furious Post: “I Can’t Take a Ranting Lunatic’s Call Every Day”

In his post, Trump unloaded on Greene, calling her “Wacky Marjorie,” “a lunatic,” and claiming she had “gone far-left.”

“I am withdrawing my support and endorsement of ‘Congresswoman’ Marjorie Taylor Greene, of the Great State of Georgia,” Trump wrote. “All I see ‘Wacky’ Marjorie do is COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN! It seemed to all begin when I sent her a poll stating she should not run for Senator or Governor — she was at 12%, and didn’t have a chance (unless, of course, she had my endorsement — which she wasn’t about to get!).”

He went on:

“She has told many people she’s upset I don’t return her phone calls anymore, but… I can’t take a ranting Lunatic’s call every day. She’s gone Far Left, even doing The View with their Low IQ, Republican-hating anchors.”

The post ended with a thinly veiled threat: Trump suggested that “wonderful, Conservative people” were considering primarying Greene in her Georgia district — and promised to give his “Complete and Unyielding Support” to whoever challenged her.

MTG Fires Back: “He’s Lying — and It’s About the Epstein Files”

Within hours, Greene fired back on X (formerly Twitter) — and her response stunned even longtime observers of her brash political style.

“President Trump just attacked me and lied about me,” she wrote from her verified Congressional account. “I haven’t called him at all, but I did send these text messages today. Apparently this is what sent him over the edge.”

Attached were screenshots of text messages she said were exchanged between herself and Trump earlier that day. One of them simply read: “The Epstein files.”

In a series of follow-up posts, Greene accused Trump of trying to silence her and intimidate other Republicans before an upcoming House vote to release sealed documents related to Jeffrey Epstein’s network of wealthy associates.

“It’s astonishing really how hard he’s fighting to stop the Epstein files from coming out,” she said. “He’s making an example out of me to scare others. But most Americans wish he would fight this hard to help the forgotten men and women of America — the people going broke trying to feed their families.”

Her final words hit hard:

“I have supported President Trump with too much of my time, too much of my own money, and fought harder for him than almost anyone. But I don’t worship or serve Donald Trump.”

The Real Issue: What Are the Epstein Files?

The so-called “Epstein files” are a collection of sealed court documents, flight logs, and investigative records tied to Jeffrey Epstein — the financier and convicted sex offender who died in jail in 2019 under mysterious circumstances.

A bipartisan bill known as the Epstein Files Transparency Act would force the Department of Justice to release all unredacted records related to Epstein’s criminal network, including names of alleged clients, witnesses, and associates.

Greene has been one of the loudest Republican voices demanding that vote. Trump, however, has reportedly expressed “concerns” that the files might contain unverified or politically damaging material — possibly involving people close to him.

That’s what Greene now says triggered his fury.

A Rift in MAGA World

For years, Marjorie Taylor Greene has been one of Trump’s most reliable allies — defending him during his impeachments, fundraising for his 2024 campaign, and fiercely attacking his critics.

Their alliance symbolized the merging of Trump’s populism and Greene’s brand of conspiracy-fueled activism. But insiders say the relationship began to sour months ago, as Greene sought to carve out her own image in Congress and Trump grew increasingly irritated by her demands for attention.

Political analyst Sarah Longwell said the breakup is “a sign of internal decay” inside the MAGA movement.

“The Trump-Greene split shows what happens when loyalty becomes transactional,” Longwell told The Atlantic. “The moment Greene’s priorities — like exposing Epstein’s network — conflicted with Trump’s self-preservation instinct, she became expendable.”

Repercussions Across the GOP

The fallout has been immediate. Conservative influencers are taking sides online, with some accusing Greene of betrayal, while others praise her for standing up for transparency.

Meanwhile, several House Republicans have privately told reporters they fear that releasing the Epstein documents could “open a Pandora’s box” of scandals.

Trump’s team, for its part, is already exploring potential challengers to Greene in Georgia’s 14th district. One longtime Trump adviser told Politico, “Marjorie forgot the number one rule of MAGA: You can be loud, but you can’t cross the boss.”

A Movement Divided

This feud exposes a larger existential question within Trump’s movement: is MAGA about loyalty to Trump, or about challenging the political establishment he once promised to dismantle?

Greene seems to believe the latter. Trump, increasingly surrounded by loyalists and wary of dissent, clearly believes the former.

Whether this marks the beginning of a wider rebellion among hardline Republicans — or just another week of political chaos — remains to be seen. But one thing is clear: the MAGA family feud is now out in the open, and the Epstein files may be the spark that ignites something much bigger.
