NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene predicted that Republicans would lose control of the House of Representatives and possibly the Senate in the 2026 midterm elections, suggesting that President Donald Trump and the GOP promised “America First” but did the exact opposite.
Greene, once a staunch Trump ally who has since become a vocal critic, said on Thursday: to mail About X “Americans are suffering,” “Both parties are absolute failures,” and “the system needs to be burned.”
“Americans don’t advertise[—] About Trump building a WH ballroom or renovating the Kennedy Center because they are paying over $4 per gallon for gas and nearly $6 for diesel because of another pointless foreign war. Americans are suffering. He suffers from an all-time high in credit card debt. It suffers from the ridiculously high cost of health insurance. Suffers from high cost of living. “I suffer from ever-increasing inflation and an ever-declining dollar because of stupid decisions made by stupid politicians,” the former congressman wrote.

“Republicans will lose the House of Representatives and perhaps the Senate in the midterm elections because Trump and the Republicans sold out America First and instead governed America LAST,” he continued. “Democrats put illegals and trans people above Americans and offer no new policies to solve the problems they create. Both parties are absolutely failing.”

Greene left her post midway through her two-year term earlier this year following a disagreement with Trump last year.
“Don’t teach your voters that you should vote for them when you deliberately fail and betray your campaign promises just because the other side is intolerable. To hell with you. You betray Americans, you put Americans last, you deserve to lose, you don’t deserve support,” he wrote in his post.

“Too many Americans are learning to live without the system and want nothing to do with any of it. Homeschooling, farming and farmers markets, homeownership, networking is how most of us survive beyond the madness of bipartisanship. We’ve turned a corner and the system needs to burn.”
