Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has just announced her resignation. Through a post on X, she has confirmed that she will be leaving office in January. For some, this is the official death of MAGA. While it’s highly likely that the eulogies already being posted online might be premature, this is actually a very significant moment in Donald Trump’s presidency. Rep. Greene’s fallout with Trump has been a long time coming, but when he called her a “traitor” last week, it seemed like they had finally gotten to a point of no return. During Greene’s 5-year career in Washington, she courted all manner of controversies. Constantly stoking fires with unverifiable conspiracies about “secret cabals” and even once being booted from the House for violent rhetoric against fellow Republicans. But through it all, Trump never had an issue with her. When he came back in office, she was one of the first people he embraced as a true loyalist. But Greene’s loyalty was always to conspiracies. And nothing presented a better opportunity for her than the ever-evolving Jeffrey Epstein saga. This time it seemed like her instincts were right and this was a conspiracy with legs. The only problem is this was the one thing Trump wanted her to let go. Trump was giving marching orders to the GOP on how to dismiss the “Epstein hoax” while Rep. Greene was actively pushing for the release of the files. When Trump realized that he actually lost this battle, he saw her as an insurgent and declared that he was willing to support a challenger who would stand against her in the primaries. Suddenly Greene had to campaign without the umbrella of MAGA. For some reason, however, she decided that this was not worth her peace of mind. Unprompted, she posted a video on X announcing her stepping down. My message to Georgia’s 14th district and America.Thank you. pic.twitter.com/tSoHCeAjn1— Marjorie Taylor Greene (@mtgreenee) November 22, 2025 Per CNN, the outgoing Congresswoman said, “I have too much self-respect and dignity, love my family way too much, and do not want my sweet district to have to endure a hurtful and hateful primary against me by the President we all fought for, only to fight and win my election while Republicans will likely lose the midterms.” A delighted Trump took to his social media platform Truth Social where he called her Marjorie “Traitor” Brown (a nickname he came up with because rotten grass is apparently brown). He continued claiming that they fell out because he refused to pick up her calls. Trump then went on to give a backhanded compliment thanking her for her service. Marge Greene was one of trump's most loyal defenders and now he's calling her a traitor…. pic.twitter.com/tnLFwljtrS— Covie (@covie_93) November 22, 2025 Rep. Greene could have ran for reelection, but considering she’s already been facing death threats, she probably made a personal decision to protect her peace, and most people respect that. But her insistence to never question Trump’s authority directly is probably what went on to backfire in her face. Throughout her push to release the Epstein files, she always insisted that the Democrats were wrong to implicate Trump. Something we are still unsure of at this point. But if Zohran Mamdani’s last trip to the White House was any indicator, Trump would have probably respected her more if she stood up against him directly. That being said, it’s interesting that in her going-away message even she admitted that MAGA expects to lose the upcoming midterms.
