Steve Cohen, an experienced legislator serving Tennessee's 9th district in the U.S. Congress since 2007, expressed his views on current affairs in a series of tweets. Cohen, known for his straightforward communication style, commented on various topics including prominent figures and socio-political issues.

On April 6, 2025, Cohen shared a tweet on social media, humorously suggesting a potential conversation between Donald Trump and Elon Musk. He quipped, "Trumps going to tell Elon: 'You’re Fired.' And take your kid with you."

Continuing his commentary early on April 7, 2025, Cohen criticized Vance in a tweet, implying deceitfulness. He stated, "Vance is putting on more fraud in this snippet than Musk and his way overrated kids found in the whole government. What a crock!”

Soon after, on the same day, he invoked historical context in discussing ongoing societal issues. He reflected on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s speeches on systemic problems and wrote, "And MLK HAD SOME ISM’s he talked about at the Riverside church. Excessive materialism, military ism, and racism. We’re not any better today than we were when Dr. King talked about it in 67."
