Marjorie Taylor Greene denies Tucker Carlson 2028 presidential run
Former Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene has dismissed speculation that conservative commentator Tucker Carlson intends to run for president in 2028. Greene stated that Carlson has confirmed his decision not to seek the presidency both publicly and privately.
Greene and Carlson are part of a growing group of former MAGA-aligned figures who have broken away from the Republican Party. This movement, which includes individuals such as Representative Thomas Massie and former official Joe Kent, is driven by dissatisfaction with the current two-party system and specific policy disagreements, notably regarding the escalation of the conflict in Iran.
While Carlson has expressed feeling 'politically homeless' and has distanced himself from Donald Trump due to foreign policy shifts, the group's current focus appears to be building a new political movement rather than launching individual presidential campaigns. However, some sources suggest Carlson's position could change depending on future Republican endorsements.
