Greene's standing has fallen as she hasn't been 'sufficiently Trumpian,' according to one political scientist.
Thomas Gift, who runs the Centre on U.S. Politics at University College London, says that Greene has been outflanked by others on the Republican right.
"I'm not sure it's so much that Greene has alienated the Trump base as it is that others are more the apple of their eyes," Gift told."You know the Trump base is feeling emboldened when even a far-right flamethrower like Greene isn't sufficiently Trumpian. "Since the 2020 election, figures like Kari Lake have arguably been even more aggressive in peddling the 'Big Lie' and brandishing the Trump flag, without even a hint of cozying up to 'establishment' types like Kevin McCarthy. That's what earns street credit in the MAGAverse," he said.
As recently as January, Bannon suggested Greene, who had appeared on his podcast, could be the GOP's vice presidential candidate. "This is no shrinking violet. She's ambitious, she's not shy about that, nor should she be. She sees herself on the shortlist for Trump's VP," he said."Paraphrasing Cokie Roberts, when MTG looks in the mirror she sees a potential president smiling back."
