Donald Trump says he would 'love to see' Marjorie Taylor Greene return to politics

President Donald Trump says he would "love to see" one-time ally Marjorie Taylor Greene return to politics one day - as the fiery congresswoman reportedly considers a White House run in 2028.

The US leader said "it's not going to be easy for her" to revive her political career in comments to Sky's partner network NBC News.

But he added: "I'd love to see that."

In the meantime, Mr Trump said "she's got to take a little rest".

Marjorie Taylor Greene - a one-time MAGA ally who has turned into a fierce critic of Mr Trump - unexpectedly announced on Saturday that she would be resigning from Congress.

In a video posted online, the Georgia representative said she did not want her congressional district "to have to endure a hurtful and hateful primary against me by the president we all fought for".

Ms Greene's resignation followed a falling-out with Mr Trump in recent months, as the congresswoman criticised him for his stance on files related to Jeffrey Epstein, along with foreign policy and health care.

Mr Trump branded her a "traitor" and "lunatic" and said he would endorse a challenger against her when she ran for re-election next year.

She said her last day would be 5 January 2026.

Meanwhile, Time magazine reports that Ms Greene has told allies that she is considering running for president in 2028.
