Liz Cheney: Anatomy of a Political Suicide (townhall.com)

. . ."Now she is on another list—the forlorn roll of Republicans who have allowed hatred of Trump to consume them. Some chose not to run for re-election; some have suffered similar fates at the hands of disapproving primary voters. 

But none have mortgaged such promise as the daughter of Dick Cheney. His video in the last gasping days of her campaign featured his incomprehensible claim that barring Trump from future office is the most important thing she would ever do, because he is the most serious threat to democracy in the nation’s 246 years. This is a man who once helped America fight actual evil. This is a former Defense Secretary and Vice President who saw genuine threats to our nation, from communists to terrorists, and strove to protect us. And now Trump is an unsurpassed threat? Perhaps this was an 81-year-old father parroting his daughter’s ravings in a last-ditch attempt to save her election. But probably not.". . .

Liz Cheney's graceless concession speech follows her landslide defeat in WY primary - American Thinker  . . ."Cheney said that that work is rooted in the fight against "the conspiracy and the lies" about the 2020 elections.  She called out without naming Republican candidates for governor, secretary of state, and other offices who she claimed support the "big lie."

"Perhaps Cheney forgot that she had spread debunked conspiracy theories spread by Democrat propagandists in the NYT that the Russian military spy unit secretly offered bounties to Taliban terrorists to kill U.S. troops in Afghanistan.

Cheney also claimed to stand for the Constitution and the rule of law.  If that were really the case, she would have insisted that Trump-defenders have seats on the January 6 committee.  Instead, she willingly participates in a Stalinist show trial, whose mission is not to find facts but to persecute a political opponent.

"Cheney said she "will do whatever it takes" to deny Trump a return to the Oval Office.

Greg Gutfeld Slams Liz Cheney's Self-Importance After Loss: 'It’s Actually Getting Embarrassing' (VIDEO) (thegatewaypundit.com)

. . .“She compared this to the Civil War,” he noted. “She is nuts, ok? She’s overtaken with such obsession and such emotional bitterness that she has this grandiose view of herself and it’s actually now getting embarrassing. It’s embarrassing for her. I wish he had a friend that could take her aside saying, ‘You’ve got to calm down.'”

"Gutfeld stated Cheney is persona non grata in both political parties.

“ 'Republicans hate you, Democrats don’t want you, this all driven by emotional brokenness that happened from Trump,” he continued, before noting Cheney also invoked Abraham Lincoln in her speech. “People say that Trump has an ego, but when he says stuff like that, it’s usually with a wink and then everybody’s laughing. There’s nothing in her eye but spite. It’s such a personal vendetta from day one.' ” . . .
