In a fiery public move that stunned even his closest allies, Donald Trump has officially announced that he’s cutting ties with Georgia congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, calling her “wacky,” “self-destructive,” and “a total embarrassment to the movement.”
The former president’s explosive statement, released late Wednesday on Truth Social, has already sent shockwaves through conservative circles — effectively ending one of the most volatile political alliances of the Trump era. “I’ve had enough of Marjorie Taylor Greene,” Trump wrote. “She’s gone off the rails and doesn’t represent the America First movement anymore. Wacky, rude, and out of control — she’s on her own.”
Within minutes, the post was trending across X (formerly Twitter), drawing stunned reactions from both supporters and critics. “This is political divorce, MAGA edition,” one user commented. Another added, “When Trump calls someone wacky, you know it’s over.”

According to NBC News, tensions between Trump and Greene have been simmering for months, fueled by Greene’s increasingly erratic behavior, her public feuds with other Republicans, and her repeated clashes with House leadership. Sources close to the former president told the outlet that Trump “lost patience” after Greene’s recent outburst during a GOP fundraising event, where she reportedly insulted several of his 2024 campaign strategists.
“He’s been irritated with her for a while,” a former Trump advisor told Politico. “But she crossed the line when she started attacking people inside his inner circle. He doesn’t tolerate disloyalty — ever.”
Trump’s post went further than anyone expected, however. “I liked her once,” he wrote. “She was energetic, loyal, and tough. But she’s become a distraction and a complete embarrassment. She’s not helping our cause — she’s hurting it.”
The break marks the end of a once-powerful alliance that helped catapult Greene to national prominence. She was one of Trump’s fiercest defenders during his impeachments, frequently appearing on right-wing networks to echo his election conspiracies. Her loyalty earned her multiple visits to Mar-a-Lago and a seat of influence within the MAGA movement.
But in recent months, Greene’s antics — from conspiracy-laden rants to public fights with other conservatives like Lauren Boebert — have tested even Trump’s tolerance for chaos. “He used to find her entertaining,” one campaign insider said. “Now he finds her exhausting.”

Greene responded to the statement within an hour, posting her own furious rebuttal on X. “President Trump is surrounded by snakes,” she wrote. “He’s being manipulated by people who want to destroy the movement we built together. I’m not going anywhere.”
Her defiance only fueled the online frenzy. “This is MAGA civil war,” one journalist wrote. “The Queen of Conspiracy vs. the King of Chaos.”
Even conservative commentators were taken aback by the bluntness of Trump’s language. “He’s never burned someone this publicly since turning on Pence,” said former strategist Steve Schmidt. “This isn’t just distancing — this is exile.”
Political insiders say the rift reflects a broader divide inside the GOP between Trump’s disciplined campaign strategists and the far-right “chaos wing” of the movement. “He wants to look presidential again,” explained CNN political analyst Gloria Borger. “Greene’s wild behavior doesn’t fit that image. The optics finally became too toxic.”
Greene’s recent appearance on a fringe conspiracy podcast, where she claimed that “AI robots are replacing the souls of politicians,” reportedly pushed Trump over the edge. “That one made him furious,” said a Mar-a-Lago source quoted by Rolling Stone. “He said, ‘She sounds like Alex Jones on Red Bull.’”

The fallout has been swift. Several of Greene’s allies in Congress reportedly distanced themselves overnight, deleting photos with her and declining interviews. “She’s radioactive now,” one GOP staffer told The New York Times. “When Trump turns on you, it’s over.”
Meanwhile, Democrats have wasted no time mocking the breakup. “When even Trump thinks you’re too unhinged,” joked Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, “maybe it’s time for some self-reflection.”
Greene’s office, however, insists she’s not backing down. In a late-night statement shared with HuffPost, her spokesperson said, “Congresswoman Greene will continue to fight for America First values, with or without Trump’s approval.”
But analysts say the political cost could be devastating. “Without Trump’s backing, Greene’s influence evaporates,” said political correspondent Tamara Keith. “Her identity is built around his brand. When that brand disowns you, you become irrelevant overnight.”

Insiders say the former president’s post may also be a strategic move. With the 2026 midterms approaching and legal battles mounting, Trump’s advisors reportedly urged him to distance himself from figures who could “alienate moderate voters.”
“He’s trying to rebrand — less chaos, more control,” said one Republican donor who attended a recent Mar-a-Lago fundraiser. “Marjorie was the chaos.”
Still, for a man who thrives on loyalty, Trump’s statement carried an unmistakable sting. “It’s pure humiliation,” said The Atlantic writer McKay Coppins. “Greene built her career defending him. Now he’s publicly thrown her to the wolves.”
By Thursday morning, “#MAGAdivorce” was trending across platforms, with memes depicting the once-close duo as feuding reality stars. One viral post read: “Trump just dumped Marjorie on Truth Social like a teenager after prom.”
Despite the public meltdown, Trump reportedly laughed about the fallout during a dinner with advisors, saying, “She’ll be talking about me for years. I made her famous.”
And in a way, he’s right. For all her bluster, Greene’s political future may now depend on the very man who just ended it — publicly, brutally, and with a single post.
