5:37Now PlayingTroy Nehls Resigns: Trump's Biggest Cheerleader Abandons Congress
Troy Nehls, one of Trump's most vocal supporters in Congress, announces he will not seek reelection in the 2026 midterm elections. The Texas Republican congressman joins Marjorie Taylor Greene and Don Bacon in a growing wave of House Republican resignations and retirements. With the current House margin at 219 to 213 Republicans to Democrats, these departures could significantly impact congressional dynamics.
Nehls, known for wearing Trump mugshot attire to State of the Union addresses and proclaiming his job was to jump when Trump says jump, claims he's leaving to focus on family. However, reports indicate he's attempting to install his identical twin brother as his replacement in Congress. Marjorie Taylor Greene previously announced her resignation effective January, timing it perfectly to secure her congressional pension and lifetime healthcare benefits. Greene cited Trump's refusal to release Epstein files as her reason for leaving, despite ongoing controversy and death threats.
Don Bacon from Nebraska also announced he won't seek reelection, completing his current term but stepping away from politics. The exodus of House members from both parties continues to reshape the political landscape as Trump begins his new term. These Republican retirements raise questions about party loyalty, political strategy, and what motivates longtime Trump supporters to suddenly abandon their congressional seats despite years of unwavering devotion to MAGA politics.
