Former Trump Attorney Michael Cohen revealed his plans to challenge Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) in the Democratic primary.
In a long-form interview with New York Magazine, Cohen detailed his journey from being former President Donald Trump’s fixer to one of his biggest rivals. Completing his turn, he announced his plans to run against the incumbent Nadler to become the Democratic representative of New York‘s 12th Congressional District seat.
“We thank him for his service, but it’s enough already,” Cohen said of Nadler.
The New York Democrat has held the position for over three decades.
Cohen plans to announce his campaign on Nov. 6, the day after the general election, meaning he would start his campaign two years before the next election.
He added that he would have run for office this year but suffered a mental breakdown as a result of his role in Trump’s hush money trial.
Nadler was dismissive of Cohen in a statement to Politico.
“What a great country America is,” he said. “Anyone can run for Congress — even con men.”
Cohen gave an intricate account of his sudden personal and political turn, tacking it onto a feeling of deep, personal betrayal after Trump failed to give him a job in his administration, and then failed to issue him a pardon for his legal troubles.
As for his erratic behavior during the Trump hush money trial, which included doing TikTok livestreams railing against Trump while donning filters making him look like cartoonish characters, Cohen said it resulted from his insomnia and the feeling of community he got from the app.

Not-The-Babylon-Bee BUMP
The mean the man who stole $60,000 from Trump?
I don’t know which one to dislike more. I’m glad I don’t live there. It’s an iconic city being destroyed by idiot Democrats.
The Crooked Fixer vs. the Waddler. It says a lot about the district itself that it would attract a couple of losers like this.
He already stole $60,000 from Trump-—and proudly admitted such.
HE NOW ADMITS he was pissed because Trump did not put him into that administration .
HE DOES NOT belong in politics.
HE IS A “FIXER”...NOTHING MORE.
AND HE FAILED AT THAT-————
Where Cohen going to get his campaign donations?? Though statute barred, will he pay Trump back for the money he stole?
Those two deserve each other.
What a choice. One has diarrhea of the butthole, the other has diarrhea of the mouth.
Thievery is a badge of honor for a place like New York.
New York should be expelled from the Union.
No Kidding!
Yes. The fixer vs the penguin 🐧. That should be interesting to see.
Fib or Fat?
AND-— HIS OTHER CLIENT-—STORMY DANIELS STILL OWES TRUMP $300,000 PLUS INTEREST.
Well at least Jerry admits it
“What a great country America is,” he said. “Anyone can run for Congress — even con men.”
It's a proud tradition...
Two losers.
Nadler, Schumer, Hillary, AOC...New York what is wrong with you people?
Two pieces of sh*t running against each other may they both lose badly
With Alcee, his conviction was a resume enhancer
