When will the House GOP do something about its Liz Cheney problem?
By David Zukerman

Poor Ross Douthat, unable to chide the left without throwing in an anti-Trump comment to keep The New York Times' management happy.  This light bulb was switched on by his January 13 column, "Let's Not invent a Civil War."  Through paragraphs remarkably turgid, one sensed that Douthat was dismissing leftist talk of a looming civil war between the red and blue states.  Yet the following appeared in the penultimate paragraph: " want to stress that the problems that undergird the civil war hypothesis are serious, the divisions in our country are considerable and dangerous, the specific perils associated with a Trump resurgence in 2024 are entirely real."

There is no mention in this column of the divisions resulting from the aggressive vows of "resistance" following the election of Donald J. Trump as our 45th president, November 8, 2016 — and certainly not of the perils that threatened to flow from false and specious assertions that Mr. Trump was a "Siberian Candidate," as the title of Paul Krugman's July 22, 2016 Times column charged.

They're not going to do anything.

Maybe... just maybe... the voters of Wyoming will "do something" come November.
That remains to be seen.

Wouldn't that be a delightful shocker if she lost her seat?

Cheney's job is to fulfill her promises and duties as representative to her constituents; not to win a popularity contest in the House.

Fair enough, but the article stresses what the House GOP can do.
