13. Greene is angling for a post-MAGA presidency
Thu Nov 13, 2025, 07:49 AM
Nov 13

Boebert and Mace are her top allies who want to ride the ship with her.

Greene is going to challenge Vance's ascendency. So will a lot of others, because they know Vance is an unlikeable dickwad who will get his clock cleaned by either Gavin Newsom or JB Pritzker. The MAGA solution to this problem is Trump himself, of course, which is why Bannon is hammering the 22nd Amendment day and night. But the GOPs refusal to nuke the filibuster and MTG's continued attacks on Trump are the signal that the GOP is going to resist that. This is also why Trump has been relatively muted about the shutdown "win." Lurking in the details is the GOP's early refusal to go along with the Third Termers.
