I voted for Trump – twice. Liz Cheney's book and DOJ Jan. 6 indictment changed my mind

I voted for Donald Trump — twice. I am a staunch, almost redneck conservative, registered Republican, Oklahoman and American. I believe in limited government, free enterprise and traditional Christian values. I believe that government should stay out of the personal lives of women and others who want to live alternative lifestyles, whatever that means. I believe in personal responsibility and that government should help those who can’t help themselves.

However, recently, for some reason, I purchased and downloaded a book by Liz Cheney titled "Oath and Honor, a Memoir and a Warning." This book was published in late 2023, and it details Mrs. Cheney’s involvement as a senior leader behind the investigation of the Jan. 6 assault on the Capitol. It is extremely detailed and very well organized. Liz goes to great pains to be objective, factual and fair in her description of how the committee was formed and how it operated for about 18 months from June 2021 to December 2022.

The committee was incredibly diligent and meticulous in its approach to developing and corroborating evidence that shows the role President Donald Trump played from the day after the 2020 election until the fateful Jan. 6 debacle as he attempted to hold on to his job. It is an impressive literary work.

I came away from the book thinking that Liz Cheney is an intelligent, highly organized, honest and patriotic American citizen. Her most impressive attribute is that she is a politician for whom honoring the Constitution and the rule of law comes above all else, including her own political career. She readily sacrificed her career as a member of Congress in order to communicate the truth.

This reads like a “paid for” book review.

ROFL. What a crock. His writing drips with ludicrosity.

"Government should help those who cannot help themselves."

That's an antithesis of conservative, constitutional government. The purpose of government is to set and enforce laws to protect the liberty of the people. Then the people can use their wealth, time and energy to pursue their own agendas - such as the charity this leftist totalitarian mentions. Real charity is voluntary and personal, not coerced via taxation and then frittered away in bureaucratic corruption.

Does anyone have this guy's contact info ?

“The committee was diligent.....”

Stopped reading this BS right there. Apparently, Mister Young believes in a DC Abu Ghraib prison where prisoners from the J6 protest are tortured and uncharged. Way to go, Jim. I don’t care how much you say you admire Reagan or hate Biden. You’re a spineless, lickspittle leftist turd.

The creeping schizophrenia is strong with this one.

Liz Cheney is a Rino Republican at best and a shill for the military industrial complex. She’s part of the Bush gang and member of the deep state. She hates Trump because he has caused many liars to show who they really are.

When someone adds some preface before they give the opposite opinion I tend to assume they are lying.

I do that all the time. I purchase books by political failures. And I have no idea why!

Come on, Mr. Young. If you’re going to do a hit piece, well okay. But try not to sound like a moron.
