The Best Historical Analog For Liz Cheney Isn’t Lincoln. It’s Colin Kaepernick
The Federalist ^ | 08/17/2022 | Shawn Fleetwood

Posted on 08/17/2022 12:39:36 PM PDT by Kevin in California

Following her humiliating defeat in Tuesday’s Wyoming primary elections, soon-to-be-former Rep. Liz Cheney gave one of the most comically narcissistic speeches by a politician in recent memory.

Despite losing to Trump-endorsed Harriet Hageman by more than 30 points, Cheney thought it was fitting not only to forecast a potential run for president in 2024 but to do so while comparing herself to former President Abraham Lincoln.

I’m sure that she thinks she’s more like Evita Peron.

She’s not at his level. More of a semicolon, I think.

A legend in her own mind. After such a monumental rejection a normal person would hide from view for a while.

If she wants to compare herself to a famous politician from the past, Pierre Laval or Vidkun Quisling would be more apt choices than Lincoln.

The meme idea run wild:

Liz’s face on Colin’s kneeling body.

Liz with Lincoln beard and top hat.

Add your own!

Abraham Lincoln was a Republican. Liz Cheney is a Democrat, regardless of what she claims.

Actually, I’m surprised Liz didn’t compare her
‘struggles’ to that of Jesus Christ or Joan of Arc.
