GOP strategist believes Marjorie Taylor Greene's 'future life in politics is over'

WASHINGTON, DC: Republican strategist Shermichael Singleton believes that Marjorie Taylor Greene's "future in politics is over" and that she will not get very far.

Greene announced on Friday, November 21, that she will resign from her seat in the House of Representatives, with her last day in office set for January 5, 2026.

Strategist says Marjorie Taylor Greene may pivot to media

Shermichael Singleton said on Sunday, November 23, during CNN's 'State of the Union,' "I’m thinking there’s some other opportunity, perhaps in the media ecosystem, that she’s looking at. But I think her future life in politics is over."

In the past, Singleton worked on the presidential campaigns of Republicans Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney in 2012, and Dr Ben Carson in 2016. He also served in the Department of Housing and Urban Development under Carson during President Donald Trump’s first term.

Earlier in November, Trump pulled his support from Greene amid a fissure over the Jeffrey Epstein files. He wrote in a Truth Social post that the rift began when he showed Greene polling data indicating she would have low support if she challenged Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff (Ga) or attempted to succeed Republican Governor Brian Kemp in Georgia in 2026.

However, Greene denied on CNN that any such conversation with the POTUS took place. She said her decision not to run for higher office next year was hers alone. Looking ahead to 2028, Greene currently ranks 12th in polling averages for the GOP presidential primary, according to Race to the WH. 

Meanwhile, Vice President JD Vance, with an average of 44.4 percent support, is the front-runner based on polling averages, followed by Donald Trump Jr at 15.9 percent, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis at 7.4 percent, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio at 6.1 percent.

MTG denies 2028 presidential bid rumors

Marjorie Taylor Greene shot down rumors that she is planning a 2028 presidential run, tearing into the media for publishing "complete lies" just days after resigning from Congress.

She took to social media to categorically deny a report from TIME suggesting she was eyeing the White House. Greene slammed the "Political Industrial Complex," arguing that the system is designed to destroy anyone who genuinely wants to fix America’s problems.

"TIME claims 'sources' told them I’m running for president in 2028, which means this is a complete lie. That’s not journalism, it’s called lying," Greene wrote on X. She added that running for president would require "begging for donations all day every day" and "arguing political talking points every day to the point of exhaustion," a process she called "destroying your health and having no personal life."

Greene also painted a grim picture of the presidency as a trapped role. She said, "The fact that I’d have to go through all that but would be totally blocked from truly fixing anything is exactly why I would never do it."

She further argued that the "Political Industrial Complex" has a business model built on never solving crises, such as the $38 trillion national debt or the looming Social Security collapse.
