Liz Cheney Sinks to a New Low, This Time About Ron DeSantis
By Bonchie | Aug 07, 2022 11:00 AM ET
If Rep. Liz Cheney were trying to prove she’s the worst GOP politician in decades, what would she be doing differently?
The Wyoming congresswoman, who is about to get blown out in her primary by Harriet Hageman, locked arms with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi after the 2020 election to spearhead the January 6th committee. What has followed is an exercise in partisan insanity, with proclamations of a “seven-step plan” by Trump to overthrow the government being met with no evidence at all. All the while, Cheney continues to tease bombshells that are supposedly so important that she can wait to reveal them just prior to the mid-terms.
Despite her behavior, there have been some on the right, including those that aren’t necessarily anti-Trump, who have defended Cheney, suggesting that she’s simply operating on principle – even if they disagree with her. That excuse went out the window on Sunday after it was revealed by The New York Times that she also couldn’t support Gov. Ron DeSantis in 2024 if he were the GOP presidential nominee.

Wow, gee, I couldn't see that coming. *****rollingeyes*****
But I'm glad she left no confusion as to who she is.

Ms. Cheney might as well be asking ranchers to go vegan.
:silly:

Maybe Dick's time would be better spent taking his princess out for an exciting afternoon of electroshock therapy.

Sounds like Liz is going out with a bang.
I am looking forward to when this bitch is reduced to a Saturday night trvia question.
-
Well, she has definitely painted herself as a RINO. There's no question. DeSantis has proven to be one of the most conservative governors in the country, a patriot and a decent man with backbone. Yet, she's finding fault with him??
If Liz wants to hold a political office in the future, she needs to join the DEM party.

If I was a conservative politician in this country wanting to further my career, a Cheney dis-endorsement would be the best news I had all month.
This bitch is toxic to anything she touches.

It might be hard to tell, but she is getting more shrill.
Folks don't like shrill. They'll walk away.
Which leaves her becoming even more shrill to maintain attention...
Which will not end well.
-
So for you people that think that they won't go after DeSantis like they did Trump, you just got your wakeup call.
It's Trump or Bust!
-
The GOP leadership supports Liz 100%.

The shriller the better at MSNBC......
That's hers and Kinzingers fate anyway.

She's Running in 2024, 3rd Party with the tacit approval of the GOP. She won't even have to get bloodied in the Primaries. She's going to be a real problem, because most likely it will cost us the Swing States.

I am hoping she is so radioactive that she just has to go home and live on daddy's ranch.

Nah. She will get single digits.
And if Tumpy is on the job, he will run her over like a freight train.
So would DeSantis, I do believe.
-

Of course they do. Any real conservative is a threat to their plan.
Namely: lose to Democrats only slowly, while pretending to be a real opposition, and make a shitload of money in the process.

The problem is that independents love her. By that I mean the “mushy middle”.

That’s if she ran in the primaries. I don’t see her doing that. She will run 3rd party and ruin Trump/DeSantis in the swing states. She doesn’t care about winning she just wants to destroy MAGA.

He's got a ranch in McLean, VA?

I don't think so. I think that right now the middle is very narrow.

Doesn't matter primary v main event... I don't think much of Tumpy, but credit where it is due... He's a friggin wrecking ball - and especially when he thinks he has a bone to pick.
He will destroy her.
-

Beats me... IIRC he had a ranch in WY back in the day.

August 16th cometh, and only Hate-Trumpers are likely to be joining in her self-immolation, :tongue2: .

It will be a wonderful birthday present for me.

Surely, by now Ms. Cheney realizes she's going to lose her seat in Congress.
The question...
What is she anglin' FOR...?

New Low? Not possible

She would fit right in with the FBI. They are every bit as seditious and outlaw as she is, if not more.
And they both exist to find something/anything on Trump or his supporters. Even if they have to do it themselves.

She hates Trump beyond any sense of rationality. She's worse than alot of Dems. Now she's after DeSantis.
Something is definitely not right. She can try and pass this off as trying to defend the GOP from the 'MAGA' crowd, but this seems deeper. Like she's afraid and doesn't want certain things exposed.
I watched her on the Sunday shows for years. Smart and articulate defender of conservatism. Now she's shrill, unhinged and irrational to the point of desperation.
There's way more to this than meets the eye.

I demure...it will end very well for America.

point taken. :beer:

Cheney may well win her primary. She is running against four others. If they split the vote, she wins.
And don't think for a moment the elite will not FIX her election, just like Biden's. Even if she wins by 0.1%, or one tenth of one percent, she wins.
And for all but the deaf and blind, she intends to run in 2024. Daddy with his billions will see to it she does better than good ole Jeb Bush did in 2016. He spent $100 million to get 1%. She believes she will do better, and I believe there is a strong chance one of these clowns runs as a 3rd party candidate, drawing away from Trump's totals, or DeSantis should Trump decide not to run.
If she and/or Kinzinger run in 2024, 3rd party, they might just knock Trump off with a 4%+ total that takes him out of the running in what will be a close election. Both have made their loyalties clear. I just do not see Trump becoming POTUS.
Part of it may well be the AMERICAN STATE NATIONAL movement. I know Trump is supportive of it all.
-
Also significant is comparing what happened when Lincoln first came to office. Three other men ran against Lincoln, all of them received Electoral College votes. Two Dems ran against each other and split the Dem vote, making it possible for Lincoln to win with but 34% of the Electoral Vote. It can happen again, this time the Dems being the victor.
Anyone that believes the calvary is on the way, as Larry Kudlow often claims, don't hold your breath. These traitors will resort to any step necessary to keep Trump out. And honestly, they got away with cheating in 2020, what is to stop them from doing a repeat? Literally!!! NOTHING!!!

@roamer_1
Not a chance. She is going to end up drawing a 6 figure annual salary from some DC law firm to peddle influence.

Wait. Hold on a minute.
Haven't you ever heard of a guy named Romney...?
