WASHINGTON, DC - NOVEMBER 18: U.S. Rep.

Who could’ve seen this coming? MTG mocks Trump’s ‘Democrat hoax’ claims while the U.S. edges closer to war

Greene causes trouble from the sidelines.

Former Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is still criticizing President Trump‘s flip-flops on foreign policy and handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case, even though Greene resigned her House seat in January.

One recent Greene X post, in fact, solicited a comment, “Hell is starting to freeze over as I find myself tapping the like tab on MTG posts. Crazy.”

The Epstein cover-up and looming war with Iran

On Feb. 18, 2026, Greene reshared a Patriot Blonde X post stating, “Just a reminder. There is no need to redact 90% of a democrat hoax,” referring to Trump’s frequent characterization of the Epstein scandal. Greene captioned her post, “Such a strong point I lol’d when I read it.” That same day, Greene shared a more serious post, asking simply, “Has Congress voted to go to war with Iran?,” amid multiple credible reports warn that the U.S. has significantly built up military forces in the Middle East and could launch a large‑scale operation against Iran if diplomatic talks fail, according to Axios.

Greene’s posts come as sources close to the President have privately indicated a high probability of military action against the country, with some suggesting operations could resemble a prolonged, multi‑week campaign targeting nuclear, missile, and regime infrastructure, potentially in coordination with Israel.

A comment on Greene’s Congressional war declaration post noted, “We don’t declare war anymore. It’s more of a wink and a nod from the Epstein Power Group that approves wars now.”

Greene’s anti-war stance

Amid these international pressures, Greene—a Republican known for her combative style and once a staunch Trump ally—has continued to publicly fault Trump for what she views as his inconsistent foreign policy and controversial domestic decisions, even after resigning her House seat in January 2026. One flashpoint between them has been the handling of files connected to Epstein.

Trump initially dismissed calls for broader disclosure—at times characterizing the issue as a “Democrat hoax”—before eventually signing a bill compelling the release of the files. Greene has called his approach a “huge miscalculation,” arguing it alienated constituents and undermined trust.

Even after resigning, she has used her platform on X to criticize both Trump’s foreign policy “flip‑flops” and his reluctance to fully embrace transparency on the Epstein files, to the point where observers on social media note her posts drawing surprising support from audiences despite their broader disagreements.

Greene’s political evolution—from Trump loyalist to sharp critic on issues ranging from transparency in the Epstein saga to skepticism toward his foreign‑policy choices—illustrates how internal fractures within the GOP and broader polarization shape U.S. politics as international tensions mount.
