You’re bragging right now?

[GoodTaste]

In a Tweet yesterday, Biden did another recap of his short time in office. The president stated, "At the time I took office about 16 months ago, the economy had stalled and COVID was out of control." Biden elaborated, "Today, thanks to the economic plan and the vaccination plan that my Administration put into action, America has achieved the most robust recovery in modern history."

In mere hours, Rick Scott fired back on Twitter, continuing the drawn-out feud between the two. Senator Scott sarcastically asked, "Really? You’re bragging right now?"

Which is right in grammar - "You’re bragging right now?" or "Are you bragging right now?"? Are they different in meanings?

There's no right or wrong here. He's decided to use a declarative word order to raise a question. You should really be asking what the effect of doing this is.

I think that is meant to be informal and is common in spoken English.

The structure is used to express incredulity here. He knows that Biden is bragging (or touting his achievements). He can't believe that, given the circumstances, Biden is attempting to make this claim.
