The Chickens are Coming Home to Roost for Republicans Who Voted to Impeach Trump
By Brandon Morse | Jun 14, 2021 10:30 AM ET

Establishment Republicans who voted to impeach President Donald Trump are now in danger of having their offices taken from them by primary challengers and it seems like their anti-Trump actions may be coming back to haunt them.

As reported by Fox News, Trump advocated for the removal of these Republicans in a February CPAC speech by claiming they spent more time trying to remove him than fighting back against Pelosi, Schumer, and Biden, and that conservative voters should “get rid of them all.”

Now the walls are closing in for Republicans like Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming, Tom Rice of South Carolina, and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois.

Cheney has, arguably, the largest target on her back. In order to win, she must defeat eight primary challengers, one of which, State Sen. Anthony Bouchard, has already raised $500,000 in campaign money. Cheney was previously ousted from House GOP leadership over her comments about Trump’s part in the January 6 riots, an event she places him at the center of. This, of course, puts a great deal of momentum against her.
