Sen Liz Cheney as a moderate democrat that way she would not be surrounded by right wing anti Americans posing as republicans the other big lie

Her fidelity is to the establishment. She is a legacy member of it.
Her loyalty seems to be to country, to her oath to protect the constitution from enemies foreign and domestic.

"We are confronting a domestic threat that we have never faced before – and that is a former President who is attempting to unravel the foundations of our constitutional Republic," Cheney said. "And he is aided by Republican leaders and elected officials who have made themselves willing hostages to this dangerous and irrational man."

She told the audience that Republicans "cannot both be loyal to Donald Trump and loyal to the Constitution," to a round of applause after she recounted the allegations the Jan. 6 committee, of which she is a member, has brought against Trump surrounding his actions on that day in 2021. "
 
She comes off an old school republican which could qualify as a moderate democrat .
Not by your standards. Do we have to drag up what you said about Sinema and Manchin?

truth be known the GOP passed away when Reagan/Bush came on board = all the nails are in the coffin.
There is actually some truth to this. Trump is definitely from the Reagan wing of the part while Cheney is from the Bush/Romney wing.

Supply Side Reaganomics = Wreckanomics
Except that it worked. Reagan managed 7% growth and an economy that ran with only one hiccup til Clinton's .com recession. They even balanced the budget and it was largely because of Reaganomics.

Were that the case, she would be out there defending or minimizing Trump's abuses.
On the contrary, Trump was anti-establishment and that made him the enemy.

Plus it was personal. Daddy Cheney and Trump hate each other.
 
Seeing how Manchin and Sinema are treated that seems like the last thing she would want to do.
What the hell are you talking about?

They are treated far better than the Republicans treat Chenney.

Well...
If that's what SHE said...
It must be TRUE 🙄

The evidence proves its true.

Evidence you refuse to even look at.

The Trump supporting Washington Examiner looked at the evidence and this is what they said.

"...... ought to ring the death knell for former President Donald Trump’s political career. Trump is unfit to be anywhere near power ever again."
 
Cheney embracing her useful idiot.

Correct. Conservatives value loyalty to Trump over loyalty to the constitution or to the country.
No, Republicans do. Many of them claim to be conservatives, but, have proven only too willing to abandon conservatism in service of an orange con man.
 
Seeing how Manchin and Sinema are treated that seems like the last thing she would want to do.

Neither Manchin or Sinema demonstrate any allegiance to any constitution except the ones written by the American Legislative Exchange Council.
That said, there's a possible case to recruit Adam Kinzinger but Liz Cheney would never join the Democratic Party ever.
Also, both of them can count on very rewarding careers outside of public service and I expect we will see a lot of both of them.
 
ABC reports, "A Republican candidate for Michigan governor pleaded not guilty Thursday for his actions during the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, when he says he and other supporters of then-President Donald Trump were exercising their free speech rights.

"Ryan Kelley appeared via video for a brief hearing in federal court, weeks after the real estate broker was arrested at his home in western Michigan and charged with several misdemeanors for his role in the riot.

"Kelley said little during the hearing, but at a debate Wednesday night he said he and others at the Capitol were unhappy with the 2020 presidential election when Trump lost to Democrat Joe Biden.

“That was a First Amendment activity by a majority of those people, myself included," Kelley said. "We were there protesting the government because we don’t like the results of the 2020 election, the process of how it happened. And we have that First Amendment right. And that’s what 99% of the people were there for that day.”

President Donald Trump’s assault on American democracy began in the spring of 2020, when he issued a flurry of preemptive attacks on the integrity of the country’s voting systems. The doubts he cultivated ultimately led to a rampage inside the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, when a pro-Trump mob came within seconds of encountering Vice President Mike Pence, trapped lawmakers, and vandalized the home of Congress in the worst desecration of the complex since British forces burned it in 1814. Five people died in the Jan. 6 attack or in the immediate aftermath, and 140 police officers were assaulted. The Washington Post.

With Donald Trump as President for four years, Republicans running for office have learned the art of lying to the American people.
 
ABC reports, "The European Union's parliament on Thursday overwhelmingly condemned the end of constitutional protections for abortion in the United States and called for such safeguards to be enshrined in the EU's fundamental rights charter.

“It teaches us a lesson: Women’s and girls’ human rights can never be taken for granted, and we must always fight to defend them,” Swedish politician Helene Fritzon said.

"Underscoring fears that anti-abortion movements might expand in Europe, some legislators said they wanted to see EU-wide protections adopted."

“The United States has clearly shown why we must use every tool available to safeguard abortion rights in the European Union," said Stéphane Séjourné the president of the Renew Europe group in the EU Parliament.

Congratulations to the Republican Party. Because of the powerful influence of the religious right. the Republican Party has made the United States a pariah among nations.

Once again Vladimir Putin is pleased that he helped Donald Trump become President in 2016. Trump's three selections to the Supreme Court made all this possible.

The forum's Republicans will probably remain silent about these issues. They rarely talk about their own party. It is off-limits. Also, they don't care, and they don't have the background to respond.

Most will have to consult the nearest Webster's to find out what pariah means.

Republicans are expected to win control of Congress in November because the Democrats are busy blaming the Democratic President because his goals are being blocked by Senate Republicans.

I am proud to be an Independent.
 
That's pretty much what the Republicans just did. She's one of the most conservative representatives in the House, but she wouldn't buy into their Big Lie and their worship of Trump. So they call her a RINO and kicked her to the curb.
Republicans are becoming more and more like democrats every election cycle.
 
If nothing else plenty of conversation was generated ....... Liz Cheney is NOT going to become a democrat.

I'm not so sure she will lose the next election ......after all the Cheney name is big in Wyoming. And so I've read some Democrats are going to switch parties to keep her in office.

The ALEC RINO Party is such a phony how can anyone accept the garbage this group puts out.

What gave you the idea that publication supports Trump? It certainly didn't come from reading their articles.

Sure it did.

They officially endorsed him for president in 2020.

You are so confused.
 
Liz? No thanks. But I do admire her balls, she has the biggest of her party.
