Bernie Sanders Defends Liz Cheney as Republicans Try to Oust Her, Calls GOP 'Anti-Democratic Cult'
Newsweek ^ | 5/6/2021 | Jason Lemon

Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Liz Cheney may hold views that are typically at polar opposites of the political spectrum. But on Thursday the progressive lawmaker from Vermont jumped to the defense of the Wyoming conservative, as she's expected to be ousted from her leadership position by House Republican leaders.

-snip-

"Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) will likely be voted off the House Republican Leadership. Her crime: acknowledging the reality that Trump lost the election," Sanders, an independent who identifies as a democratic socialist, tweeted Thursday afternoon.

The Vermont senator then took aim at the GOP more broadly. "The Republican Party is no longer a 'conservative' party. It is an anti-democratic cult pushing the Big Lie and conspiracy theories," he wrote.

A little editing please:

Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Liz Cheney may hold views that are typically at polar opposites of the political spectrum BUT, TRY AS WE MAY, WE ARE UNABLE TO NAME ONE.

I have long found it curious that people believe that Republicans should take the advice of Democrats.

But then too many Republicans seem to do just exactly that.

Yep! If she thinks that by the rats glowing on her will bringing sympathy form our side she is greatly mistaken. On the contrary it makes us even more determined to kick her to the curb. Stump out the RINO lizard snake!

โ€œ For a brilliant woman, Liz has piss-poor political instincts.โ€

My guess is she simply believes all of the crap that comes out of the Swamp and the DNCC.

What does “democracy” even mean these days? It appears to mean using American military power to force 3rd World countries and non-Western cultures (practically the same thing) to accept gay stuff. Liz Cheney’s defenders define her. All of them are from the Left. All.

She should be given ribbons and medals by her Marxist friends for traitorous service in undermining the GOP.

Doesn’t she realize the meaning of lowlife creeps like Bernie liking her so much?

He’s taking advantage of the opportunity it presents. it’s what they do. plus, they don’t have much policy-wise. They stuck for their guy at Chappaquiddik.

That's such an appropriate comment. Here's a little music to go along with that. Isn't it rich? Frank: Send in the Clowns

“It is an anti-democratic cult”

The GOP is. Liz is running the cult.

Note well how all the democrats are welling up behind her. That is because she is down deep a democrat. She criticizes Donald Trump for questioning the 2020 election. The more forensic audits show Trump is right, the more she shouts, louder and louder, trying to create resistance to what he is saying about democrats cheating. Why, because her affinities are with the democrats. Just look at her actions over the last month, and now over the Maricopa audit!
