Former President Donald Trump took a victory lap Wednesday morning after House Republicans ousted Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., from leadership.

"Liz Cheney is a bitter, horrible human being," Trump wrote. "I watched her yesterday and realized how bad she is for the Republican Party. She has no personality or anything good having to do with politics or our country."

"She is a warmonger whose family stupidly pushed us into the never-ending Middle East disaster, draining our wealth and depleting our great military, the worst decision in our country’s history," he added. "I look forward to soon watching her as a paid contributor on CNN or MSDNC!"

Cheney departed the House Republican meeting on Wednesday and immediately vowed to work to keep Trump for being re-elected if he runs for president again. She told fellow lawmakers that he is trying to damage American democracy.

Trump rose to power in the Republican Party by leveling personal and extreme attacks on his opponents within the party, frequently using name-calling to build support for his presidential bid.

“Liz Cheney sure has a lot of friends at CNN right now. Lol. They are all deeply concerned with the direction of the Republican party.”

If CNN doesn’t like it, they must be doing something right.

She will run third party. That is how filthy she is.

Hopefully, there are enough conservative votes in WY to overcome that.

Dear Liz and the rest of the GOP elitist uniparty globalist warmongering scum. Stop trying the “Trump” angle. It ain’t about him and we know it, and we know you know it.

You have tried to make it about him because what you really despise is the movement. You really don’t like that we don’t like the fact that for years you mouthed the words about putting us first in order to get elected. But you could really give two hoots about backing up the words with actions. What you really were doing was living in your elite little globalist bubble while enriching yourselves and your corporate/Chamber of Commerce masters.

Get this Liz and the rest, Trump didn’t give birth to the movement. The movement gave birth to him (as a politician).

Trump could evaporate tomorrow but America First is not going anywhere. AND THAT IS WHAT YOU REALLY HATE.

This woman is a travesty and an extreme discredit to the great state of Wyoming.
What an embarrassing situation to have her representing them.

Outrageous. The left did nothing but level personal attacks on the Cheneys for YEARS!

Trump has used their own rhetoric and turned it upside down, not only against the Cheneys, but against the left, who has been forced into the difficult position of DEFENDING the Cheneys!

The final word will be spoken by the voters of Wyoming!

There’s a group of moderate (RINO) Republicans in the house of representatives known as the Republican Governance Group (formerly called the Tuesday Group). It has about 30 members. Dick Cheney was a member when he was in the house. Liz Cheney is currently a member. So is Elise Stefanik.

It's interesting that they are going with Trump "damaging American democracy".

The election audit in AZ, actions in MI, NH, and other states may tell a different story about "damaging American democracy".

If election fraud is demonstrated, it does not get rid of Biden or Harris, and it won't make Trump president this year. But it sets the stage for future elections and the notion that "damaging American democracy" is bad, and Trump is the guy who revealed the Truth.

“Next up, Romney.”

All things in due time.

It’s better to run the country by Joe Manchin’s standards than Chuck Schumer’s, which would be the result if Romney goes full Democrat.

She’ll lose her seat in 2022 and be a commentator on a leftist views show.


Maybe she’ll join the former chairman of the Republican National Committee, Michael Steele on CNN?

“Next up, Romney.”

Romney may have just wished to get Trump out of his way.

Mitt has one principle - Mitt comes first.

That wasn’t a victory lap, it was the first lap in a 500-mile race.

It was the SECOND lap.

Donald Trump ran Lizard Cheney into the wall on Lap 1.

“...There will be more to come....”

McCarthy needs to be next.
He’s as useless as teats on a boar hog.
