Marjorie Taylor Greene denies 2028 presidential bid rumors, calls media reports 'a complete lie'
WASHINGTON, DC: Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene has aggressively shot down swirling rumors that she is planning a 2028 presidential run, tearing into the media for publishing "complete lies" just days after her surprise resignation from Congress.
In a fiery social media post on Sunday, November 23, Greene categorically denied a report from TIME that suggested she was eyeing the White House.
Instead, she launched a blistering attack on the "Political Industrial Complex," arguing that the system is designed to destroy anyone who actually 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 and they made it up because they can’t even quote the names of the people who they claim said it. That’s not journalism, it’s called lying.

Marjorie Taylor Greene blasts 'lying' media reports on 2028 bid
Greene wasted no time addressing the speculation, which had gained traction after her dramatic split from President Donald Trump earlier this week.
"TIME claims 'sources' told them I’m running for President in 2028, which means this is a complete lie," Greene wrote on X. "That’s not journalism, it’s called lying."
She explained that running for President would require "begging for donations all day everyday" and "arguing political talking points everyday to the point of exhaustion," a process she described as "destroying your health and having no personal life."
Marjorie Taylor Greene says she 'would never' run for president
The Georgia firebrand, who is set to leave Congress on January 5, painted a grim picture of the presidency as a trapped role.
"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 declared.
Greene argued that the "Political Industrial Complex" has a business model that relies on never solving crises like the $38 trillion national debt or the looming Social Security collapse.
"I’m not the kind of person who is willing to make the deals that must be made in order to be allowed to have the title," she added, positioning herself as an outsider who refuses to play the game.
Split from Trump fueled speculation of presidential run
The rumors of a presidential run were fueled by her high-profile break with President Trump, who recently pulled his endorsement after she defied him on the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
While NOTUS reported that Greene had told colleagues she considered herself "real MAGA" compared to those who had "strayed," the congresswoman insisted that her exit was about leaving a broken system, not climbing higher in it.
Despite the friction, Trump reacted to her resignation by saying it would be "great for the country," while acknowledging he would "always appreciate" her past loyalty.
