Rep. Liz Cheney said in an interview with Punchbowl News Thursday that she will stand behind her vote to impeach former President Trump "every day of the week" as she faces multiple primary challengers in her 2022 reelection effort.
Cheney, R-Wyo., is the chair of the House Republican conference and has taken heat from many on the right over her vocal condemnation of Trump after the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol by a mob of his followers.
That has spurred Trump's wrath in multiple forums and triggered a handful of Republicans to announce primary challenges to her -- Trump said in a statement earlier this month he will endorse one of them soon.
But Cheney told Puncbbowl News that she has no plans to back away from her stance that impeaching Trump was the right thing to do.
"I'm confident I'm gonna win. It's gonna be, certainly, a challenging primary. I'm preparing for that right now. We've got multiple opponents," Cheney told the publication on a podcast that will be released in full later Thursday.
"I'm gonna fight hard and I'm not gonna take it for granted," she continued. "But I also think there are some pretty big constitutional issues at stake, and I think those are really important. So anybody who wants to get in that race and who wants to do it on the basis of debating me about whether or not President Trump should have been impeached, I'll have that debate every day of the week."
The third-ranking Republican in the House of Representatives also said in a separate press call Wednesday that speculation she might not run for reelection is "wishful thinking." She said she is "absolutely dedicated" to "earning the votes of the people of Wyoming."

Cheney says she’ll campaign on impeaching Trump ‘every day of the week’!
What an spoiled brat idiot, she is.
Apparently, impeaching Trump is the only thing that works with the idiots, who might vote for her. Those idiots don’t
that you can’t impeachment a person who isn’t serving as President.
I want this bitch to go down so hard, that they erase her name from the history books.
looks like she is morphing into McConnell
Liz Cheney is polling sooo low in Wyoming, and has sooo little support, even from the Wyoming Republican Party, that she is looking for a way out of her Congressional race. Based on all polling, there is no way she can win. She’ll either be yet another lobbyist or maybe embarrass her family by running for President, in order to save face. This warmongering fool wants to stay in the Middle East and Afghanistan for another 19 years, but doesn’t consider the big picture—Russia and China!
Even if she loses, and she will, she’ll get a job on ABCNNBCBSFOX..................!!!
Cuz you know those Wyoming folks are on board with bans on cattle ranching if it cuts greenhouse gases.
Good. May she crash and burn.
I’ve heard this before with GOPe candidates that are getting killed in the polls, then they win their primary with like 80% of the vote. Don’t get lulled.
Hey LIZZY become a DIM...for real. You are one...just come out the closet.
Hey ugly, fatty
Admitting Trump is still president?
Can’t impeach a citizen
Who on earth does this delusional woman think is going to vote for her? A clear case of cognitive dissonance.
Donald Trump Jr.
@DonaldJTrumpJr
I can only assume this means that Lincoln Project Liz is planning a primary challenge to Joe Biden for the Dem nomination because God knows she’d be lucky to break 5% running in the 2024 Republican primary.
What has she ever accomplished other than exploiting her Daddy’s name?
So her platform is being a stupid, petty, loser. Sounds like a winner.
What makes you think the Rats would have her, even they have standards.
she thinks she’s gonna win over conservatives?
She knows she’s gone in the next primary.
So, she’s having to be defensive every time she opens her mouth.
And, she’s got Trump to contend with, which means it’s a certainty that she’s done.
She might as well move on over to where her friends are, and that’s the democrat party. She’s a goner and so is the democrat party majority in the 2022 elections.
This woman is a rabid jackal
