A Republican strategist has declared that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-GA) “future life in politics is over” following the congresswoman’s recent decision to leave Congress.
Greene’s resignation was apparently due to threats she and her three adult children have received since conflicting with President Donald Trump on several issues.
GOP political strategist Shermichael Singleton said on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday that whether or not Greene had statewide or larger political ambitions, he believed her political career is now over.
“I’m thinking there’s some other opportunity, perhaps in the media ecosystem, that she’s looking at,” the CNN political commentator said.
“But I think her future life in politics is over.”
It isn’t known whether Greene still has any future political ambitions.
However, part of her rift with Trump is believed to be over his discouraging her from running for statewide political office, either for governor against Brian Kemp or senator against Jon Ossoff.
Yet, Greene denies it even happened.
It was after this alleged discouragement that she started disagreeing with Trump on some of his policy initiatives, like whether to release the Jeffrey Epstein files.
It may be just a coincidence, but it seems like the two may be connected one way or another.
She soon found out what unfortunately happens when you disagree with Trump publicly.
For his part, Trump doesn’t seem to be holding any grudges.
He told NBC News he didn’t think it would be easy for her to continue in politics.
However, the president added, “I’d love to see that.”
Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA), with whom Greene worked on the Epstein file release, said he thinks she could have a shot if she ran for president in 2028.
Khanna argues that Greene seems like more of a populist than Trump or Vice President JD Vance does now that they are in office.
Nevertheless, the polls do not agree with Khanna at this point.
Vance is way ahead of the pack, with Greene in a distant 12th place.
Greene could make a good commentator because of her strong opinions and passionate delivery.
She is also still popular with her constituents, most of whom voted for Trump.
Not everyone can deal with death threats that seem to follow anyone who expresses a divergent political opinion, though.
We will just have to see whether Greene can come back from this or not.
