CNN political commentator Scott Jennings criticized Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., during a Sunday appearance on ABC News, saying the Georgia congresswoman “became a lib” and went “off the deep end” amid emerging divisions within the broader MAGA movement, as reported by Breitbart.
Jennings made the remarks while appearing on This Week, hosted by Jonathan Karl, during a discussion about internal disagreements among prominent conservative figures and supporters of President Donald Trump.
Karl raised the issue by pointing to what he described as a relatively new divide within the MAGA coalition, suggesting that Greene’s recent posture toward President Trump represented one of the more surprising developments of the year.
Karl said, “The kind of divide in MAGA, which is a relatively new phenomenon — I mean, there was always a little bit there, but if I were to say what the most surprising story was, I would say Marjorie Taylor Greene becomes not just a Trump critic, but a—”
Jennings then interjected, cutting off Karl’s sentence to deliver a blunt assessment of Greene’s political shift.
“MTG becomes a lib. I mean, that is what happened this year,” Jennings said.
“She got a little bent out of shape because the president wouldn’t support her for a statewide office in Georgia, which she was going to lose if she had gotten into it, by the way, and so she goes off the deep end.”

Greene, a high-profile Republican lawmaker from Georgia, has long been associated with vocal support for President Trump and the MAGA movement.
Jennings’ comments suggested her recent criticism of Trump stemmed from personal political frustrations rather than broader ideological differences.
Despite highlighting Greene’s break with Trump, Jennings downplayed claims that such disagreements represent a serious fracture within the Republican Party.
He argued that President Trump remains overwhelmingly popular among GOP voters and continues to exert unmatched influence over the party’s direction.
“Look, I don’t think these divisions and all this fraying are as big a deal as some people make it out to be,” Jennings said.
“Trump is still extraordinarily popular among Republicans. He’s the strongest party boss in the modern era.”
Jennings further argued that Trump’s influence extends well beyond primary politics, emphasizing his ability to drive legislative action through allies in Congress.
“And he can get his allies in Congress to do most anything he wants them to do,” Jennings said, pointing to the former president’s record of shaping Republican priorities.
Looking ahead, Jennings suggested that Republicans should focus on solidifying Trump-era policies through legislation.
He said lawmakers should spend the coming year attempting to codify executive orders and other initiatives introduced during Trump’s presidency.
“And he can get his allies in Congress to do most anything he wants them to do, which is why I think in the coming year they really ought to spend some time trying to codify his executive orders and some of the other initiatives that he’s had, really try to make it stick and really fight it out,” Jennings said.
“Because I think a lot of the things he did would actually be pretty popular political debates to have.”
