Has been all his life……
Being President hasn’t changed a damn thing….
Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) on Sunday said that former President Trump’s actions during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot last year show that “he is at war with the rule of law.”
Why it matters: Cheney’s remarks on CBS’ “Face the Nation” come days ahead of the one-year anniversary of the Capitol riot, and as the former president has rebuffed efforts by the House panel investigating the insurrection to seek documents and information.
- Cheney, who serves on the committee, said it must seek to “lay these facts out for the American people so that they really have a sense of the truth of what happened that day.”
What they’re saying: The former president “has demonstrated that he is at war with the rule of law,” Cheney told host Margaret Brennan.
- “He’s demonstrated that he’s willing to blow through every guardrail of democracy,” she added. “He can never be anywhere near the Oval Office again.”….

What Cheney fails to realize is that the vast majority of her party doesn’t CARE “what happened that day.”
Many of them define that mob of domestic terrorists as “ patriots.”
Cheney is trying to do the right thing and I give her credit for that , but she is no longer a factor in the Republican Party. Even if she managed to be re-elected, and that is by no means certain, there’s a good chance the totally Trump dominated Republican caucus in the House, under the leadership of Trump stooge Kevin “the worm” McCarthy, will likely kick her out or at least so ostracize her that she will be an insignificant presence there.
She IS in fact a STRONG Republican member….
She very well COULD get re-elected and probably would be ignored by her fellow party leaders….
That is?
If Trump still has his political ‘juice’….

“It’s such an odd moment for the party,” said a Republican lobbyist. “We’re not quite post-Trump, we’re mid-Trump.”
