Many of you have wondered about this. Maybe this will help.
NYT—“Liz #Cheney, who cont’s to describe #Trump as “unstable” & “depraved,” decided that Sept will be her moment to weigh in..when early voting has begun & her voice will not be lost in sea of back-to-back convention speeches.
Her objection to speaking in Chicago was almost entirely about timing.. It was a polit calculation—which some of her allies disagreed w—abt when she could maximize her impact on outcome of the race”
Do people who are pissed off by the Cheneys’ endorsement not see how much better off we’d be if many more horrendous wingnuts were similarly outraged by Trump’s hamfisted coup attempt?
Most of them were for like 5 minutes after Jan 6. Imagine if that sentiment had stuck?
Via Rupar:
Liz #Cheney: "We've seen just in the last week the Republican VP nominee willing to be interviewed by Tucker Carlson, who's platforming pro-Nazis, is himself pushing pro-Nazi propaganda. That is not the party of Reagan."
Cheney on #Trump threatening her: "It's not personal from my perspective w 1 exception, & that is that I'm a mother. I'm a mother of 5 kids. & it is personal to me that my kids grow up in a country where they know they can depend on the peaceful transfer of power."
