Marjorie Taylor Greene, once a staunch supporter of Donald Trump, has dramatically distanced herself from the former president in recent months. The split began with disagreements over foreign policy and technology regulation, but reached a breaking point when Greene criticized Trump's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case. She joined forces with Epstein's victims and members of the opposing party to push for more transparency, further straining her relationship with Trump and her own party.

Greene's dissent did not stop there. She challenged her party's approach during the government shutdown, advocating for the renewal of healthcare subsidies for low-income Americans. Publicly, she accused Trump of prioritizing foreign affairs over pressing domestic issues, emphasizing that voters are more concerned about economic and affordability challenges. Ultimately, these disputes led to Greene's decision to leave Congress, marking a significant shift in her political trajectory.
