MAGA Congresswoman Greene Announces Resignation After Public Feud with Trump

Deep News11-22

On November 22, Beijing time, U.S. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene announced her resignation on Friday, stating she refused to be a "battered woman" following a public dispute with President Donald Trump.

Her resignation marks a dramatic turn of events, as few would have anticipated this outcome months ago. Greene, a Republican from Georgia, was once one of Trump's closest allies and an outspoken advocate for his "America First" agenda. However, tensions between the two escalated in recent months over issues such as the government's release of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein and other policy disagreements.

In a 10-minute video posted on social media, Greene cited her resignation as a response to potential Republican primary challengers backed by Trump and the possibility of Democrats retaking the House in next year's midterm elections. She also criticized Congress for being largely sidelined since Trump returned to the White House in January.

Trump, in an interview with ABC News, called Greene's resignation "great news for the country. It's really fantastic." Her resignation will take effect on January 5.

Greene expressed frustration with the current state of U.S. politics, accusing lawmakers from both parties of failing to address critical national issues, including rising living costs.

The public rift between Trump and Greene has heightened concerns among some Republicans that fractures may emerge within the "Make America Great Again" (MAGA) base ahead of the midterms, where Democrats aim to regain control of Congress.
