 Trump White House snubs ex-VP Dick Cheney, offers no condolences on his death
By Steven Nelson   
Published Nov. 4, 2025, 2:21 p.m. ET

WASHINGTON — The White House offered no public condolences Tuesday on the death of former Vice President Dick Cheney — saying flags were lowered to half-staff at the executive mansion because the law requires it.

President Trump has repeatedly attacked Cheney, who died Monday at age 84, as a “warmonger” and sparred with his daughter, former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) who served as the top Republican on the House select committee that investigated Trump’s role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.

Both Dick and Liz Cheney endorsed then-Vice President Kamala Harris in last year’s election, with the former VP saying Trump was the greatest threat to the country since its founding.

What was classless were Cheney's repeated attacks on Trump.

I'll say RIP for Cheney but our flag isn't going to be lowered for him.

That's pretty much where I am.  Didn't like how he got picked for VP under Bush2, didn't like how he didn't step down from the 2004 ticket so Bush had nobody to back in 2008.  A fiasco from the get-go

True. Paved the way for McLame to hand the White Hut to the Kenyan Pretender in 2008.

After all the hate from him and his family and especially Liz Cheney's participation in 2 shampeachments, this is not even slightly surprising or unearned.

Yes. At some point, I believe in a certain measure of old school statesmanship. This is one of those instances. That’s just me.

Dick Cheney did as he pleased, even if it meant violating every rule in the book.  Many contracts were awarded to Halliburton, the company he was formerly CEO of and I assume held huge positions in the company when he was VP.  The problem was they were not awarded according to the existing law. 

All federal contracts require competion and the government awards the contract to the lowest bidder or that contractor with the highest evaluation.  That never happened when Cheney was VP.  10s if not 100s of billions of dollars in contracts went to Halliburton, no competition.  IMHO, these actions were deserving of impeachment at the time.

Cheney just did as he pleased, and idiot Bush stood there with his hands in his pockets. 

He will not be missed by me.  And I abhor his corrupt daughter.  Any Republican that supported Harris against Trump is no Republican.  He was a soundrel that got away with plenty of crimes in my book!!!!!!!

RIP Tcheky Karyo, actor in a number of movies I enjoyed.

He was the French officer in The Patriot with Mel Gibson.  He was in several other movies I enoyed through the years.   He was one of France's most revered actors.

I liked his character in that movie. He had a kind of warmth that made him relatable.

"The Patriot" is an excellent movie and I have watched it several times.
