"In the latest episode of the soap opera that passes for politics in the United States, President Donald Trump has dramatically split with Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, a former ally and a notorious wearer of the MAGA hat. Writing on his Truth Social platform on Friday, Trump denounced his fellow Republican as wacky and Far Left, claiming that he did not have time to deal with her alleged barrage of phone calls: I can't take a ranting Lunatic's call every day."
"Greene denies having called the president, saying instead that she had texted him to suggest that he cease endeavouring to thwart the full release of the so-called Epstein files pertaining to the late paedophile and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, which may implicate Trump. The US House of Representatives is set to vote this week on the matter and Greene is not the only Republican to have broken ranks."
President Donald Trump publicly split with Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, calling her wacky and saying he could not take her 'ranting Lunatic' calls. Greene denies calling and says she texted him urging him to stop blocking full release of the Jeffrey Epstein files, which could implicate Trump. The US House will vote on releasing the files, and several other House Republicans, including Thomas Massie and Lauren Boebert, have defied Trump. Trump then reversed his position, urging Republicans to release the files because 'we have nothing to hide.' The episode highlights internal MAGA conflict and political volatility.
