Trump, Loomer Mock MTG After Stunning Resignation Announcement
President Donald Trump
took to Truth Social Saturday morning to share his thoughts on his former
ally’s shocking resignation.
“Marjorie ‘Traitor’
Brown, because of PLUMMETING Poll Numbers, and not wanting to face a Primary
Challenger with a strong Trump Endorsement (where she would have no chance of
winning!), has decided to call it ‘quits,’” he wrote, alleging that Greene was
too cowardly to run without his backing.
However, after that
barrage of insults, he concluded the post on a positive note: “Nevertheless, I
will always appreciate Marjorie, and thank her for her service to our
Country!”
Not many Republicans
have weighed in yet on Greene’s exit, but one of Trump’s most loyal attack dogs
has been predictably rabid: Laura Loomer.
Starting by taking
credit for MTG’s resignation (via the now-familiar “Loomered” post), the far-right personality has since
accused Greene of getting
paid to “screw Trump over
ahead of 2026,” of wanting “Trump to chase her,” and of displaying “typical victim female
energy.”
Loomer and Greene had
been feuding for months, partially stemming from Loomer’s
unabashed support for Israel and Greene’s push to stop arming the country as it
carries out a genocide.
Loomer wasn’t coy about
her glee at her political opponent’s resignation, posting, “Her life being made miserable this last week
makes me happy. Traitor Greene is a terrible person. I get a lot of joy in
watching my enemies fall.”
On the other hand,
Representative Thomas Massie posted a kind tribute to Greene. “I’m very sad for our
country but so happy for my friend Marjorie. I’ll miss her tremendously,” he
said. Massie was one of Greene’s only allies in the Republican party in
attempting to release the Epstein files, and has similarly been targeted by the
president for his efforts.
