TIME Washington Correspondent Philip Elliott compared the Republican Party to the Soviets Wednesday, saying the GOP “disappeared” Liz Cheney, to the mockery of Twitter users.
“It’s not just the Soviets who are masters of disappearing someone,” Elliott warned in a piece titled The GOP Just Borrowed a Soviet Skill and Disappeared Liz Cheney. “Just look at Wyoming, where voters this week drubbed a former senior member of the Republican establishment out of office on orders from former President Donald Trump,” he said.
The writer suggested in the article that Cheney, after losing by a massive margin in the Wyoming Republican primary, had somehow been erased from party history like somebody who had run afoul of Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin.
Elliott recounted how Cheney, once a mainstay of conventional Republican politics had rebelled against the new direction of the party as she moved against its leader, Donald Trump. “Her performance made her a darling of liberals who not that long ago thought the Cheney clan to be some of the worst people in America,” he said.

DC Examiner columnist T. Becket Adams commented with sarcasm, tweeting, “Losing by 38 points in a free and fair democratic election, rejected overwhelmingly by the people who elected you in the first place, just like in the Soviet Union.” …

He’s clueless. Totally clueless.
Wrong, no Commie tactics involved we simple voted the bitch OUT!
How can we disappear her when she won’t go away?
I call it the 2022 Wyoming Rino mutilation.
Little bits and pieces remained—the mouth kept flapping for sure....
;-)
she was voted out, not one in the back of the neck...

I want her to immediately run for President. She should announce before Trump. There really isn’t a better model of the type of republicans that need to be voted out of office. It is going to take several election cycles to somewhat fix the GOP. Get used to that fact and put in the work to make it happen.
As expected, they accuse American citizens of doing to vile Liz Cheney what they are actually trying to do in Soviet Style - disappear Donald Trump from 2024.
The republican voters in her own state are the ones who “disappeared her” via the voting booth.
As someone who’s GreatGrandparents were actually “disappeared” by Stalin...
This is offensive. Takes a lot to do that to someone like me.
Libtards miss their buddy Lez Romney already
“How can we disappear her when she won’t go away?”
No kidding. The loud mouthed bi*** will not shut up.
The DemonRats would love the use of Stalin’s tactics. He is one of their heroes.
He’s not clueless, just an evil liar.
Yes, because citizens utilizing the democratic process to select a representative that supports their political views is so Soviet.
I don’t think she was ever “mainstream.” She was elected because of the money behind her father.
She always struck me as part of the Collins/Murkowski crowd. That is certainly not mainstream.
Made my day..XD
“Disappearing someone” as in voting them out of office? LOL!
What about the genuine disappearances he doesn’t mention.
