U.S. Senator Mitt Romney, a leading Republican critic of former President Donald Trump, will help raise money for Representative Liz Cheney, who is fighting for political survival after voting to impeach Trump and contesting his false stolen-election claims.

Romney is the featured guest at a March 14 fundraiser for Cheney at the home of Bobbie Kilberg, a well-connected Virginia Republican who lined up against Trump during his 2016 bid for the White House, according to an invitation seen by Reuters.

In addition to Romney, the list of attendees is comprised of an array of establishment Republican figures and Trump critics, including former congresswoman Barbara Comstock, former Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, lobbyist Charlie Black, and former Vice President Dick Cheney, Cheney's father.

*Good, money raised for Cheney is going down a rat hole and can’t be used in more competitive races.*

You got it wrong. They’re making a statement to other republicans, other races be dammed. Our statement should be to take her out even if it means a rat wins in November. If Lisa gets the nomination in Alaska we cannot make the same statement.

She’s toast. It doesn’t matter how much money they put in her campaign coffers.

This little, and I mean little, group of anti-Trump RINOs must have a delusion they are forming a third party like Perot unless they think they are going to topple the big GOP themselves.

If so, who are their gushing constituents ready to go door to door and campaign for Jeb, Kasich, Liz Cheney, Murkowshi, S. Collins and Mitt? Those only work if there’s a lot of enthusiasm (TEA Party, Perot, Gene McCarthy and Robert F. Kennedy and other anti-war candidates in the 60s).

It’s go for Trump or lose the party to a splinter dividing the anti-Dem vote disastrously.

Not “Okay, somebody clap” and “Is anyone out there in those seats? I can’t see past the spotlights.”

Good grief! Liz looks like she’s been rode hard and put up wet.

Time for her to go natural on hair color and get some lessons on how a lady is supposed to sit in a chair.

Liz Cheney always looks like she is miserable,which is a definite trait of a liberal Democrat. Plus, her fake hair extension looks ridiculous.

Further proof that the GOP, Inc. establishment is still the enemy of real conservatives.

Yes, that is a very astute observation. They know they are despised by tens of millions of American patriots, and that turns them into bitter, self-loathing wretches which is clearly revealed by the hateful look on their faces. This Chaney Skank is a perfect example.

“She won’t win re-election, but she’ll have millions in campaign cash to spread around with friends and family.”

I think the proper term is illegal money laundering.

One of Gov. Chris Christie’s most generous donors in his failed bid for the White House, Virginia fundraiser Bobbie Kilberg, jumped to the Jeb Bush camp. Kilberg: a decayed swamp person.

Wouldn’t it be a pity if a meteor would strike the hall where all this fund-raising is taking place.
