Marjorie Taylor Greene Says She’s Done Supporting the Republican Party

“Tucker is not the only one who is done supporting the Republican Party. There is A LOT of us that are absolutely fed up and will not support a party that betrays its voters and country.
That does not mean we are turning into Democrats either. But we are DONE with the America LAST Republican Party.”
Greene resigned from Congress in January 2026, ending her time representing Georgia’s 14th District. Her break with Donald Trump and Republican leadership had been building for months before that, driven by the party’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files, foreign-policy fights over the Middle East, and what she calls a betrayal of the “America First” promises she ran on.
She posted the statement on X in late June, responding to Tucker Carlson, who had just said he was done with the GOP too. Greene had already left office months earlier, so this is a public withdrawal of support rather than a formal change in her party registration. Trump had already turned on her publicly, pulling his endorsement and saying she’d “lost her way.”
In a follow-up post, she wrote: “I’m way too conservative to be a Democrat and too honest and free thinking to be a Republican. But I’m 1000% a proud American!!!”
