Tom Williams—CQ-Roll Call, Inc/Getty Images by [Chantelle Lee](https://time.com/author/chantelle-lee/) ## Chantelle Lee Reporter Aug 4, 2025 9:24 PM UTC Georgia Rep. [Marjorie Taylor Greene](https://time.com/6186463/marjorie-taylor-greene-interview-georgia/), who has historically been closely aligned with President Donald Trump’s MAGA movement, is proclaiming her discontent with the current trajectory of the Republican Party. “I don’t know what the hell happened with the Republican Party,” Greene told the [_Daily Mail_](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14960689/marjorie-taylor-greene-floats-breakup-republican-party.html#)in an interview published over the weekend. “But I’ll tell you one thing, the course that it’s on, I don’t want to have anything to do with it, and I, I just don’t care anymore.” While Greene said that she is still loyal to Trump, she told the outlet that she thinks the party “has turned its back on America First and the workers and just regular Americans.” On Monday, the Georgia lawmaker appeared to criticize the Trump Administration’s handling of various issues on social media. In one [post](https://x.com/mtgreenee/status/1952339589881860535), she included an image that said “number of arrests” and listed several incidents or events—including an apparent reference to the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, “pedophile arrests” related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, and the “2020 election”—with the number zero next to each one. Greene captioned the post, “Don’t talk about it if you aren’t going to do it.” In another post the same day, she noted that “our Republican controlled Congress is no where near completing our appropriations bills” ahead of a Sept. 30 deadline, and that lawmakers are on recess until Sept. 2\. “The American people pay ALL the taxes and deserve their representatives to do our jobs and put Americans needs and interests FIRST,” she [wrote](https://x.com/RepMTG/status/1952338992776499438). Greene has made a handful of other critical comments toward her fellow Republican lawmakers or the Trump Administration in recent weeks. On July 28, Greene became the first Republican in Congress to call the situation in Gaza a “genocide,” taking the step in a [post](https://x.com/RepMTG/status/1950000279593607551) denouncing what she called an “awful statement” from her Republican colleague Rep. Randy Fine of Florida regarding the conflict. Earlier that month, she [criticized](https://time.com/7302441/epstein-trump-bondi-republicans-maga/) the Trump Administration’s handling of files related to Epstein’s case, calling it “a red line that it crosses for many people.” Both issues have been the subject of broader tensions within the Republican Party, as [deepening divides](https://time.com/7306578/gaza-republicans-marjorie-taylor-greene-genocide/) have emerged between lawmakers over the conflict in Gaza and as the Trump Administration has faced [fierce backlash](https://time.com/7302081/trump-epstein-files-maga-base-lose-supporters-conspiracy-theorists-transparency/) from the President’s MAGA base over Epstein. Polling has also suggested other trouble for Trump and congressional Republicans. The President hit the [lowest approval rating](https://time.com/7305351/trump-polling-new-low/) of his second term late last month as he lost support from Independents. And the massive tax and spending bill the GOP passed earlier in July—a signature piece of Trump’s agenda—appears to be the [most unpopular piece of major legislation](https://time.com/7299256/big-beautiful-bill-polling-takeaways/) in decades. In her interview with the _Daily Mail_, Greene said she wants to stop foreign aid, cut down on government spending via the Department of Government Efficiency, and rein in the national debt. The Georgia lawmaker also told the outlet that she thinks Republican women “are really sick and tired of the way men treat” them. She said that Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York, whose nomination to serve as the U.S. representative at the United Nations was [pulled](https://time.com/7272314/elise-stefanik-un-ambassador/) by the Trump Administration earlier this year, “got shafted.” Greene didn’t blame the President specifically for the move, but rather “the people in the White House.” She called it “weird” that Mike Waltz was then tapped for the role, being [reassigned](https://time.com/7281981/mike-waltz-trump-ambassador/) from his position as National Security Adviser, even after [The _Atlantic_](https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2025/03/trump-administration-accidentally-texted-me-its-war-plans/682151/)revealed that he had apparently added its editor in chief to a private Signal group chat that was being used to discuss sensitive military operations. “How does he get awarded after ‘Signalgate’?” Greene told the _Daily Mail_. “I don't know if the Republican Party is leaving me, or if I'm kind of not relating to Republican Party as much anymore,” she said. “I don't know which one it is.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/7307443/marjorie-taylor-greene-republican-party/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/7307443/marjorie-taylor-greene-republican-party/"},"headline":"MAGA Stalwart Marjorie Taylor Greene Signals Potential Split From Republican Party","datePublished":"2025-08-04T21:24:46.000Z","dateModified":"2026-03-11T01:37:37.264Z","description":"The Georgia lawmaker has historically been closely aligned with President Donald Trump’s MAGA movement.","url":"https://time.com/7307443/marjorie-taylor-greene-republican-party/","keywords":["Congress","News Desk"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltac37a165275d2064/6998c8cfa97fc0e08ca74932/MTG-MAGA.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Chantelle Lee","jobTitle":"Reporter","url":"https://time.com/author/chantelle-lee/"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltac37a165275d2064/6998c8cfa97fc0e08ca74932/MTG-MAGA.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"House GOP 7/22/25","caption":"House GOP 7/22/25","creditText":"Tom Williams—CQ-Roll Call, Inc/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/politics/","name":"Politics"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/congress/","name":"Congress"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/7307443/marjorie-taylor-greene-republican-party/","name":"MAGA Stalwart Marjorie Taylor Greene Signals Potential Split From Republican Party"}}]}] ```
