Liz Cheney Defeated!

[Joe Elliott]

The majority of Republicans are continuing their work at eliminating the few decent Republicans left in office. And the ones with the best chance of winning a November election in a non Red district or state.

In my mind, it is a badge of shame to win a Republican primary election. Unless one ran against a Trump endorsed candidate. Which has happened. Which shows that Trump's grip has slipped some.

In any case, winning Republican primaries won't mean anything without victories in November. We will see if the Republicans get enough wins in November.

How certain Americans view Cheney. Which shows how distorted their vision is.

How does Cheney refusing to back the overturning of a fair election make her a traitor?

How does Cheney's loyalty to the principal of a government of the people, by the people, for the people, make her more like Benedict Arnold than Abraham Lincoln?

Lizzy was a Trump hater long before the Jan 6th thing. That is the only reason Pelosi selected her for that committee.
It had nothing to do with any " loyalty to the principal of government "

Long before January 6, 2021. Like as far back as November 5, 2020, when Trump started to try to overturn the election.

My impression is that, up until November 2020, she was in step with Trump. From 2017 through 2021 she supported Trump's position 93 % of the time, more than some Republicans who are still in good standing with Trump. It was Trump's statements and actions after the 2020 election that turned her against him. But for that, she would have still been a big Trump supporter up til the present day.

Question:

What media article, from before November 2020, stated that Liz Cheney was a RINO, or "Not a Supporter of Trump"?

[Jerry Freeman]

Lizzy voted to impeach someone for inciting a riot who was merely summarily accused of that by Nasty Pelosi.
Donald Trump did not command people [nor was there even any suggestion of such] to go storm the Capitol. 
Cheney shot herself in the foot there and she paid the price.

The political establishment like McConnell, Pelosi and others created this situation.  They enriched themselves, failed to deliver on any promises, and have held onto power at all costs for decades.  Continued endless foreign wars for the last 50 plus years (Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, and now Ukraine).  Spending trillions on pork under the guise of some other cause (COVID, inflation, wars).  It's been a disaster for this country.  The results speak for themselves.  People are fleeing socialist utopias like California and NY.  Look at the situation under Biden.  They find an issue (COVID, Ukraine, inflation) and throw a ton of money at it.  Most of that money goes to other unrelated purposes but even the money that goes toward the cause is wasted in corruption and incompetence.  Most of it ends up in the hands of donors or supporters who then kick back support to the politician.  All their spouses, children, and even more distant relatives are multimillionaires.  It's a broken system.
