What I'm saying is that they are all effectively Tweety. I'm not going to celebrate when one of them casts a ceremonial vote to convict Tweety for a coup attempt.Yes? I'm comparing her with ALL THE OTHER Republicans. Trump's position and the GOP's position are sometimes the same, so expecting her to vote mostly against Trump's position is basically expecting her to be a Democrat.
She's less Trumpy than most Republicans in the House. That's all I'm saying.
I haven't much either, but my guess is a presidential run. Again, just a guess.I'm not sure what big move she's looking at. I haven't really followed her career.
I don't see a path at this point. I do think that the first female candidate who wins a presidential election will probably be a Republican, though. That's looking at it through the current dynamic, though. My predictions aren't the best.I haven't much either, but my guess is a presidential run. Again, just a guess.

They could start by genuinely apologizing for the coup attempt, embracing reality, and not fielding awful candidates. Then they could stop trying to suppress the vote. I'd rather vote against them by mail.Sounds like you don't recognize any resistance within the Republican party and the only thing that would satisfy you is if they all resigned. Or crossed the floor and voted the Democratic line.
Like that's going to happen
We need clarification here, Trumpy is not a conservative as Trump is not a conservative. Trump put forth McConnell's conservative agenda so that he could continue his grift. That's right, trump was McConnell's bitch The spat between McConnell and Trump could be interesting. Cheney is conservative alright, but she is 0% Trumpy.That isnt true.
She is more Trumpy than Stefanic, who Republicans chose to replace Chenney in her leadership position, she only voted with Trump 77% of the time, compared to Chenney's 92.9%. For example.
I'd like to think she supports Democracy more. If no one speaks out for wrongs against our Constitution then they are complicit in those wrongs, @Emily L .If you're ever seen JFK's book "Profiles in Courage," then you know it's about people in Washington who sacrificed their political careers by doing what was right and not what was politically expedient. That kind of courage is very rare these days, but I think Cheney has it.
(I just wish she were a little less vocal--I'd like to think she is doing it for her country and not because she personally hates Trump so much.)
Yet she voted with Trump 92.9% of the time.We need clarification here, Trumpy is not a conservative as Trump is not a conservative.

I think we need a ven diagram here. Trumpism is separate from conservatism, but there is much overlap. For example, Cheney is 100% conservative and 0% Trumpy.Yet she voted with Trump 92.9% of the time.
Stefanic, who Republicans chose to replace Chenney in her leadership position, only voted with Trump 77% of the time.
So Chenney was canceled from Republican leadership for not being Trumpy enough, yet she was replaced by somone less Trumpy than her.
Republicans have lost their minds.
If she is the "tip of the spear", then that spear isn't just crooked and bent, it's blunt. She doesn't have any support from the citizens of Wyoming.
Great idea! Go for it.Yes, but not for good motives. I'd do it on the slim chance she would do exactly as well as the (Trumper) Republican and hand the at-large seat to a Democrat.
I'd like to think she supports Democracy more. If no one speaks out for wrongs against our Constitution then they are complicit in those wrongs, @Emily L .
If Cheney and Manchin ran together, I'd donate to them.
Have you read up on her positions and stances, other than her fervent anti-trumpism? They are horrific. I admire her courage, but she is actually more conservative and more radically so, than her Dad.Unpopular opinion:
Democrats should support independent bids by candidates like Liz Cheney in states like Wyoming. Dems should even welcome her to become a Democrat if she wants to, although that would probably be a worse kiss of death in Wyoming politics than running as an independent.
That is because you are a trumpista , and not really a conservative. Neither is Manchin or Trump conservative for that matter. Cheney gets a 96% scorecard from the Heritage Foundation on her voting record. She is unyieldingly conservative on issue after issue after issue. She is not part of the Trump cult, and won't pretend to be.Even though I am a Trumpista, I will vote for Manchin, but never for Cheney

Wyoming is the reddest state in the nation, her not only opposing trump but also campaigning with pelosi sealed her fate, currently a dead raccoon could run against her on the r ticket and win bloating corpse and all, with the vultures being staff members.Correction, she doesn't have support from the Trump supporters in Wyoming. She could win the primary with a plurality depending on how many compete for the spot.
Also, the Wyoming Republican primary is open to anyone who registers as a Republican that day at the polls. Could be interesting out there.
She is from Wyoming. Dems should take red state allies where they can get them.Have you read up on her positions and stances, other than her fervent anti-trumpism? They are horrific.
Wyoming isn't going to elect Bernie Sanders.I admire her courage, but she is actually more conservative and more radically so, than her Dad.
Liz Cheney for pres. That is funny. There are only two people in office that poll below Biden. Chaney and Harris.
The only support she has is the TDS crowd.
That isnt true.
She is more Trumpy than Stefanic, who Republicans chose to replace Chenney in her leadership position, she only voted with Trump 77% of the time, compared to Chenney's 92.9%. For example.
Not if you look at her voting record.I counted Stefanic along with the other Republicans
Would you accept "Liz is less Trumpy than most of the House Republicans" so I don't have to explain how ranking works?
I
No. If you look at her voting record.
Don't you see the irony in kicking her out of her leadership position because she doesn't show proper fealty to Trump, in spite of the fact that she voted with him 92.9% of the time, and then replacing her with someone who, while a total Trump ass kisser, voted with him far less?
Don't you see how ridiculous that makes the Republican party look?
And no need to explain ranking. You are simply wrong on the facts.
"Out of all House Republicans, Stefanik had the 22nd lowest “Trump score,” while Cheney was about middle of the pack, ahead of former Rep. Mark Meadows, Trump’s ex-chief of staff, and fierce Trump allies Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio and Mo Brooks of Alabama. "
