Former Vice President Dick Cheney announced Friday that he will definitely not be voting for former President Donald Trump in November. In a statement datelined "McLean, Virginia," not Texas or Wyoming, the former vice-president cast Trump as an existential threat to the Republic.
In our nation’s 248-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump. He tried to steal the last election using lies and violence to keep himself in power after the voters had rejected him. He can never be trusted with power again.As citizens, we each have a duty to put country above partisanship to defend our Constitution. That is why I will be casting my vote for Vice President Kamala Harris.
The announcement was teased earlier Friday by former Wyoming Congresswoman and seemingly former Republican Liz Cheney as she was campaigning for Texas Senator Ted Cruz's opponent, Democrat Colin Allred, when she said, "Dick Cheney will be voting for Kamala Harris." Liz Cheney endorsed Harris on Wednesday.
The endorsement symbolizes a clean break between the zombie-like husk of a political party staggering along in the wake of George W. Bush's presidency and whatever it is the GOP is trying to become. Over 200 former Bush, McCain, and Romney acolytes have endorsed Harris; see Bush, McCain, and Romney Aides Made a Move in Presidential Race That Didn't Get Reaction They Hoped. An obscure child of John McCain was trotted out to change his party registration and announce his fealty to Kamala.
In short, the establishment wing of the GOP knows that if Trump wins, the grift is over. They are panicked. And they will do anything, including looking stupidly opportunist, to stop that from happening.
America haters. Nice.
And not a single f___ was given.
Yawn, more proof the GOPe are 100% scum.
Ready to turn America over to the communists because their feelings are hurt. They always enjoyed bending over for the DemonRATS instead of standing up to them. They can kiss my red, white and blue arse.
abs Streisand = Babs Streisand
I wonder if anyone really GAS who they plan to vote for. They’ve only got one vote. Use it on a commie ho if you have to.
Trump said he would make public the Epstein client list. The next day Cheney says he’s voting for the Communist. Coincidence?
Commie for commie.
No shocker.
Trump sure does have a way of making them show their A$$es.
Yep, Trump removed the masks.
Yawn, more proof the GOPe are 100% scum.

It’s also proof that Trump is the greatest political anti-septic in the history of the Republic too.
Dick. An appropriate name for a traitor.
I’ve been on the edge of my seat waiting with baited breath to hear who Dick Cheney was going to endorse.
His first name fits this neocon who loved wars and making his cronies that run the industrial military complex rich.
He’s got a date of judgement looming ahead. All those americans who died for a lie thanks to this monster.
Nobody who is a real Republican gives a sh1t what DICK Cheney thinks.
The whole Bush Crime Family can FOAD.
Dick Cheney always did make an art out of cowardice.
Didn’t know Dick was alive. I didn’t think much of him as VP and he’s gone downhill since. And GWB was always a weak-dick...just better than John Fucking Kerry.
BTW - 2 of my kids and I did tours in either Afghanistan or Iraq. I didn’t object to the war. I still think we did the right thing invading. But my tour in Afghanistan convinced me we should have kicked their butts and THEN got out. The nation-building was a waste of time, money and lives. My 2 kids agree.
People in Teton County seem to be daft. I have a sister there.
I feel sorry for the baboon who gave up his heart for Dick.
