Trump Tramples on MTG’s Dreams of a Senate Run
STABBED IN THE BACK
The MAGA firebrand is weighing a run for Democrat Sen. Jon Ossoff’s seat in 2026, but Trump reportedly has doubts about her chances.

President Donald Trump doesn’t think his MAGA cheerleader Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has what it takes to win the Georgia Senate seat she’s eyeing.

The Georgia Congresswoman, who is weighing a run for Democrat Sen. Jon Ossoff’s seat in 2026, declared on NewsNation Tuesday that she would triumph in the Republican primary.

But Trump—who carried Georgia by just over 2 points in the 2024 presidential election—appears to have doubts about her prospects in the swing state.

“The president loves MTG. He doesn’t love her chances in a general,” a Trump adviser told Axios.

the same very stable genius who endorsed the semi-literate, moronic, brain-damaged football player, Herschel Walker, for a Georgia Senate seat now refuses to "endorse" his most loyal MAGA cheerleader. Can't put lipstick on this pig!
