President Donald Trump’s move to cast out loyalist Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and appear to embrace New York City’s new mayor, Zohran Mamdani, has left his most ardent top allies bewildered, with even former White House aide Steve Bannon remarking it’s a “world turned upside down.”
Trump revoked his endorsement of Greene following public spats over his handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files in a stunning break that led up to Greene’s announcement Friday night that she planned to resign from Congress in January. At the same time, Trump appeared to warm to Mamdani, despite warning New York City would see catastrophic consequences if it voted in the democratic socialist.
Bannon joined fellow MAGA die-hard Laura Loomer in expressing befuddlement, Politico reported Saturday.
“A world turned upside down,” far-right podcaster Bannon told the outlet in a text message.
“What’s the purpose of people voting in 2026 if the Democrat policies are ‘rational?’” fellow far-right podcaster Loomer said in an interview. She was pointing to Trump calling Mamdani a “very rational person.”
Loomer openly admitted to being a “little confused” because, “I need to know for the sake of my own edification what the administration’s stance is on Mamdani.”
