Elise Stefanik may be a squishy NY Republican, but, I’d rather have her and her focus on pumping up and supporting Republicans and working to get Republicans elected, rather than Cheney who’s more focused on Orange Man Bad and giving ammunition to Democrats
Liz Cheney says she regrets voting for Trump in 2020
Rep. Liz Cheney on Friday said she regretted voting for former President Donald Trump in the 2020 election given his efforts to overturn his defeat and sow doubt in the integrity of the process.
“I was never going to support Joe Biden and I do regret the vote,” Cheney told ABC News Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl. “It was a vote based on policy, based on substance and in terms of the kinds of policies he put forward that were good for the country. But I think it’s fair to say that I regret the vote.”
Cheney, R-Wyo., also blasted House Republicans for elevating Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York to replace her in party leadership, calling it “dangerous” to promote yet another leader who has promoted former President Trump’s falsehoods about the 2020 election.
“What does it say about the party choosing somebody to replace you, who was effectively chosen by Donald Trump and saying what he’s been saying – those very lies you were talking about?” Karl asked Cheney in the interview, which will air in full on “This Week” on Sunday.
“I think it’s dangerous. I think that we have to recognize how quickly things can unravel,” Cheney told Karl. “We have to recognize what it means for the nation to have a former president who has not conceded and who continues to suggest that our electoral system cannot function, cannot do the will of the people.”
So, let me get this straight: Trump was great on Republican/Conservative policy, on the policy substance, and the policies he proposed, but, mean tweets? So she goes on ABC, the enemy of Republicans, to whine and essentially give Democrats a helping hand? And whine about Stefanik on supporting Trump, who had those policies Cheney supported? Liz didn’t attack Elise over actual policy, just over TDS.
And Cheney has been a big distraction, because she was more invested in Orange Man Bad than going after Biden
Shortly after meeting at the White House on Wednesday, House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy signaled a renewed effort with an aggressive fundraising text targeting his host, the president.
“I just met with Corrupt Joe Biden and he’s STILL planning to push his radical Socialist agenda onto the American people,” the text said.
McCarthy and other Republicans have said intraparty squabbles, including the drama surrounding Rep. Liz Cheney, distracted them from presenting a unified front against Biden and his big spending plans.
Now, with Cheney expelled from Republican congressional leadership, the GOP and its allies are renewing attacks on Biden on issues such as immigration, taxing the wealthy, foreign policy, and the ability of a 78-year-old man to handle the political world’s toughest jobs.
She was an unneeded distraction. She was not helping in doing her job. If you’ve ever listed to the old Bob and Tom Show, they had a skit called “you’re not helping the show.” Cheney was not helping.
Hopefully that will embed correctly, won’t know till this posts.
Cue Democratic party activists who would never vote for Ms. Cheney coming to her defense.
Even an honorable Republican is still a Republican, and wrong on most policy matters, but hardly a threat to our democracy.
The ignorant, feckless cowards who kneel in front of loser trump ARE a threat to our democracy.
Teach thinks it was about a few mean tweets, LOL. Don’t overlook the failed coup He engineered.
Remember what Mitch McConnell said following the right-wing, white, trump supporter storming of our US Capitol to try and overturn the election:
Just like Sen Lyndsey Graham, Sen McConnell read the political tea leaves and quickly returned to blowing Dear Leader.
Rep Cheney kept telling the truth; the truth that the feckless Senators had abandoned. That’s the sin the likes of Teach cannot tolerate – refusing to give Dear Leader absolute loyalty and submission.
Bwaha! And this dumbass calls others ignorant.
Word of the day: feckless.

Bwaha! Lolgf
Dipshit Teach and Dipshit Jr must believe the coup succeeded. LOL.
Only in the mind of Rimjob, dipshit that he is.

Bwaha! Lolgf
Dipshit Teach, Dipshit Donnie and their spawn, Lil Dipshit. What a trio.
From energy independence for the first time in over 50 years to gas shortages in 4 months.

Bwaha! Lolgfy
And Middle East Peace back to ME war.
Joey the Red is doing a great job…….for the communists!
The left tries so hard to Preach that 2020 was a LIE.
They are only reinforcing to themselves what they believe. IF Videos of counters running the same ballots over and over and over all night long, removed from under a table after they told everyone to leave for the night cannot convince them there is/was voter fraud then certainly they would believe anything including Russia, Russia, Russia.
On a more cheery note.
Associated Press CEO Gary Pruitt said in a statement that “a dozen†AP staffers and freelancers were in the building before the bombing.
“We are shocked and horrified that the Israeli military would target and destroy the building housing AP’s bureau and other news organizations in Gaza,†his statement said. “They have long known the location of our bureau and knew journalists were there. We received a warning that the building would be hit. This is an incredibly disturbing development. We narrowly avoided a terrible loss of life.â€
I guess the Israelis don’t like the LYING MEDIA EITHER. What is comical is how the CEO of AP is AGHAST that the Israelis would give them a warning and then blow the snot out of a building that houses HAMAS MILITANTS, but not say a word about how they preach HAMAS’S position and blow the terrorists and sleep with the enemy of Israel.
Like I said. The MIC and the corporations and the generals and ELWOOD wanted the left back in charge so WARS COULD RESUME around the world, even in a pandemic.
The Democrats prove themselves over and over as war mongers while trying to convince everyone it is the right who supports wars and it was. In the past. Not any longer. (And the left has no idea how to deal with a Republican party that no longer values Corporations, the MIC and WARS as a means to an end)
The left has overtly become warmongers beginning with Obama who fired more drone missiles at Muslims than anyone in the history of history. A direct 180 with Trump and the MAGA crowd. Too Funny that Trump can play the left into becoming Nazi’s warmongering, cop hating Anarchist just because Trump wanted to AMERICA FIRST.
Yet Around the world nation after nation have taken up the Mantle of (Insert Nation here) FIRST.
