Marjorie Taylor Greene Denies 2028 Presidential Run Amid Party Criticism
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has publicly dismissed reports that she is considering a run for president in 2028, calling the claims “baseless” and accusing media outlets of spreading unfounded rumors.
The Georgia Republican, known for her outspoken style and frequent clashes with both Democratic and Republican leadership, responded sharply to a recent report by NOTUS, which cited multiple anonymous sources claiming she had discussed a potential White House bid with colleagues and donors.
“Congress needs to go back in session because DC reporters are bored and desperate,” Greene wrote in a post on the social media platform X. “And I would like to pass bills and appropriations for my current job.”
She also directly addressed the outlet, demanding to know the source of the report and suggesting that the story was based on gossip from political rivals. “Who is your source? Laura Loomer? She claimed I was running for governor last week and announcing it on the view. Once again you publish baseless gossip. Very disappointing. Don’t text me again,” Greene said in a message to a NOTUS reporter.
Greene’s communications team and a close associate, Glenn, who is reportedly dating the congresswoman, have also denied the report. Glenn, who works as the chief White House correspondent for Real America’s Voice, stated on X: “MTG has NO plans to run for President in 2028. I AM YOUR SOURCE. Thank you for your attention to this matter.”
Despite her denials, the speculation about a possible 2028 campaign has been fueled by Greene’s recent media appearances and her increasingly vocal criticism of the Republican Party. Over the past year, she has appeared on national platforms such as CNN, “The View,” and “Real Time with Bill Maher,” and has used her social media presence to highlight her disagreements with party leadership and recent electoral losses.
During an October podcast appearance, Greene was asked about a potential presidential run and responded, “Oh my goodness. I hate politics so much, Tim. People are saying that, and I’ve seen a few people saying ‘she’s running’… What I’m doing right now is I very much want to fix problems. That’s honestly all I care about.”
Some GOP insiders believe that even if Greene does not formally enter the race, her public statements and media activity could position her as a disruptive force within the party, potentially using the threat of a run to increase her influence.
Greene’s recent resignation from Congress, announced in a surprise video, has further intensified speculation about her future plans. President Donald Trump, who has had a complicated relationship with Greene, responded to her resignation by saying he would “love to see” her return to politics and insisted she had “nothing to be forgiven for.”
However, Greene’s daughter has also dismissed the rumors, calling claims of a presidential run “a lie.”
As the 2028 election cycle approaches, Greene’s actions and statements will continue to be closely watched by both supporters and critics within the Republican Party.
