Donald Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene recently engaged in a fierce public battle over the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
As the House prepared for a crucial vote to make thousands of pages of Epstein-related documents public, Trump vehemently opposed the disclosure, labeling Greene and other Republicans who supported the release as "traitors" and "ranting lunatics." He even withdrew his endorsement of Greene, who had been one of his staunchest allies.
Greene, in response, fired back by accusing Trump of trying to protect powerful individuals implicated in the scandal. She argued that the American public deserves transparency and that no rich or influential person should be shielded if involved in wrongdoing. Greene’s stance has exposed deep divisions within Trump’s own political base, as many Republicans are torn between loyalty to the former president and the call for justice and accountability.
The escalating feud draws attention to the political ramifications surrounding the Epstein files, which contain sensitive information linking numerous high-profile figures, including Trump, to Epstein’s criminal activities.
