A conservative political analyst on Wednesday gave a behind-the-scenes look at Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's (R-GA) feud with President Donald Trump during a podcast interview.
SE Cupp joined Jamal Simmons on the "Politicon" podcast on Wednesday, where the two discussed Greene's recent breaks from Trump and the MAGA movement. For instance, Greene criticized the president's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files and has called out the president for supporting tariff policies that she says are harming everyday Americans.
"This is personal," Cupp said. "This is about the fact that she's mad at Trump. She's mad at Trump for not letting her run for Senate or governor in Georgia."
Over the summer, some political analysts speculated that Greene would run for one of Georgia's two Democratic-held Senate seats. However, she decided not to run, which raised concerns among some experts that Trump may have pressured her to drop out of the race.
"You can go back, go on her Twitter, her ex, whatever, and go back to earlier this year, start in like April, and you'll find her talking about wanting to run for Senate and then governor, being told she can't and announcing she wouldn't, but but announcing it very reticently and with a lot of shade at like the good old boy network keeping her down and her disappointment in Trump and Republicans for getting in her way and not empowering her," Cupp added.
