Washington (CNN)Former Vice President Dick Cheney will support Donald Trump, he told CNN Friday, an important move as the presumptive Republican nominee is encountering intense resistance from senior members of his own party. Cheney told CNN Special Correspondent Jamie Gangel that he has always supported the GOP nominee and will do so this year as well.
The announcement makes Cheney one of the few Republican Party elders to announce their support of Trump and comes a day after House Speaker Paul Ryan told CNN he is "just not ready" to back Trump.

He realizes this country can not withstand 4 to 8 years of Hillary. He is a good man.
Cheny is a very smart man. Far smarter than the Bushes, Ryans and Romneys of the world.

Ryan has a super PAC for President that was launched in March, maybe he ‘s waiting to make his final decision to enter the race.
To: winoneforthegipper

Ryan’s plan is kaput. Paul Manafort has his number.

Bush Sr said nasty stuff about Cheney. Pay back time to Bushy.

Dick Cheney did the only thing he could. He, at least, shows some loyalty and deference to the GOP rank and file.

“He realizes this country can not withstand 4 to 8 years of Hillary. He is a good man.”
Personally, I always thought he’d have made a much better president than W!

Schwartzkopf didn’t have to be a military genius. The coalition had overwhelming superiority in every manner. Saddam was dead meat long before the buildup was complete and the pre-invasion air war softened up an already pudding-like Iraqi position. The only question was how many Iraqis would die and how fast they’d be expelled from Kuwait.

Cheney demonstrates he has a pair once again. Would like to see Dick give the Bat-Eared Bolshevik the “Cheney Death Stare” one more time at Trump’s inauguration day.
