The representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-GA., Said on Friday definitively on Friday that she will not enter the race of the American Senate, while the Republicans welcomed Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff in the state of Battleground of Georgia as a crucial collection to enlarge their majority with three seats next year.
“Someone said one day:” The Senate is the place where good ideas will die. “They were right.
“I will not fight for a team that refuses to win, which protects its weakest players and who undermines the very people he is supposed to serve,” she added.
Greene’s announcement one day comes after another Trump ally, representative Buddy Carter, R-GA., Announced his candidacy for the Senate, making him the first major republican candidate to challenge Ossoff.
“Even with some good Republicans in the Senate, nothing changes,” said Greene.
Greene had told journalists on Wednesday that she “would think about it and speak with my family this weekend” to set up an offer from the Senate or to enter the governor’s race.
“It’s really good to have options, and I make a decision depending on where I think I can be the most effective,” she said at the time.
A Greene spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for a comment on the question of whether Greene had made a decision concerning the governor’s race.
The Republicans, who were wary of Greene, sought an alternative candidate after the governor of Georgia Brian Kemp said that he would not enter the Senate race.
Greene supported in her post that she defeating Ossoff “would be easy”, after having pushed those who doubted this week earlier this week that she could be elected to the Senate.
“Yes, they said the same thing about Donald Trump when he ran in 2016 and they said the same thing about him in 2024,” Greene told journalists on Wednesday when she was questioned about the skeptics who suggested that she was not lucky to seize the siege of Ossoff.
Greene was elected for the first time at home in 2020.
Greene easily won her re -election last year, winning 64.4% of the vote in her district in a state that Trump overthrew after losing it against Joe Biden in 2020.
