Marjorie Taylor Greene teases major next political step

Marjorie Taylor Greene Eyes Senate Seat
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, a staunch conservative from Georgia, is reportedly considering a bid for the U.S. Senate. Since her arrival on Capitol Hill in 2021, Greene has rapidly become one of the most prominent and polarizing figures in Washington, known for her unwavering support of former President Donald Trump and her fearless engagement in cultural battles.
Greene’s Alignment with Trump and Conservative Causes
As a vocal supporter of Trump, Greene has aligned closely with his policies and the broader MAGA movement, rarely deviating from this path. Her support from Trump has bolstered her stance in various cultural conflicts, particularly against Democrats who oppose her views, such as Representative Jasmine Crockett of Texas.
Potential 2026 Senate Run
With a significant following on social media and a solidified right-wing message, Greene is seriously contemplating a run for the Senate in 2026, according to insiders speaking with the Daily Caller News Foundation. Her decision hinges on whether Georgia’s current Governor, Brian Kemp, decides to enter the race against Democratic incumbent Senator Jon Ossoff. Kemp, who is term-limited, might not run, positioning Greene as a formidable contender in a likely intense GOP primary.
Should Kemp opt out, Greene is confident in her ability to “crush” any competition, as per sources. Other House Republicans such as Mike Collins, Buddy Carter, and Rich McCormick are also eyeing the seat, setting the stage for a heated battle for this influential position.
The High Stakes of Georgia’s Senate Race

The upcoming Senate race in Georgia is expected to be one of the nation’s most watched and expensive. The 2020 race, in which Ossoff secured his seat, saw spending exceed $500 million. Ossoff is already preparing for a tough re-election, with over $11 million already amassed for his campaign.
Kemp’s Potential Impact on the Race
Despite Greene’s ambitions, Kemp remains a strong potential candidate, with multiple polls indicating his lead over Ossoff. Leaders from the Senate and the National Republican Senatorial Committee have even met with Kemp, encouraging him to run given his strong fundraising capabilities and established political network. However, Greene’s close ties to Trump could give her an edge in the primaries, especially since Kemp has fallen out of favor with Trump post-2020 election.
As the political landscape continues to evolve, Greene’s potential candidacy will be a critical development to watch, especially for those invested in maintaining robust conservative representation in the Senate.
