Michael Cohen - Elected to Lead, Chose to Run
There’s a saying I’ve come to live by, especially after everything I’ve been through: when the pressure rises, you find out what people are really made of. Some rise to the occasion. Others fold. And then there are those who simply walk away.
Right now, we’re watching a political moment unfold in real time that demands courage, clarity, and a commitment to country over career. Instead, what we’re seeing is a growing number of Republican lawmakers quietly choosing the exit ramp—announcing they won’t seek reelection in 2026 rather than face what they fear most: a primary challenge from Trump and the MAGA base.
Let that sink in.
The battle over the so-called “big, beautiful bill”—the centerpiece of Trump’s second-term domestic agenda—is barreling toward its conclusion. Today, the Senate is deep in the weeds of a vote-a-rama, a chaotic but crucial process where lawmakers pile on amendments in a last-ditch effort to shape or sabotage the legislation before it heads back to the House. It’s a marathon. It’s messy. And it matters, because what’s in this bill will ripple across the lives of millions of Americans.
