Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene says she is concerned President Donald Trump could attempt to cancel the 2028 U.S. presidential election. Across reporting by Mediaite, Newsweek, and The Hill, Greene links her worry to the ongoing war involving Iran, suggesting Trump could use a national security or wartime situation as a justification.
The articles describe Greene—who has publicly aligned with Trump while also breaking with him—making the claim in comments to the press. The Hill adds context that Greene resigned from Congress in January following a public dispute with Trump, while still portraying herself as closely connected to his political movement and framing her remarks as a warning about potential actions by Trump.
No sources provide evidence that Trump is actively planning to cancel the election. The reports focus on Greene’s expressed fears and her claim that Trump “constantly says” or implies such actions could be possible. The statements center on the possibility of using the Iran conflict as an “excuse,” according to Greene.
