‘She’s a hero’: Liz Cheney down but not out in Wyoming after crossing Trump
Reuters ^ | May 12, 2021 1:44 PM EDT | Nathan LayneDavid Morgan

When lifelong Wyoming Republican Tage Benson and Democrat Chamois Andersen met for the first time at the Owl in the Attic antiques store in Laramie this past weekend, they quickly put their political differences aside.

Their home state's embattled Republican congresswoman, Liz Cheney, needed to be supported, they agreed, for standing up to former President Donald Trump and contesting his false stolen-election claims.

“This is where Democrats and Republicans can come together,” said Anderson, 51, a wildlife advocate who often disagrees with Cheney on policy.

"She is a hero," said Benson, 67, who was working the store's register. He told Andersen his Democratic friends were talking about registering as Republicans to vote for Cheney in the party's primary election next year. "I'm going to talk everyone into that," he said.

Good luck with that.

“Hero” - once more, defining deviancy down.

There was noting “heroic” about that impeachment vote, taken AFTER Donald J. Trump had already left office. It was meaningless and just for purposes of sheer spite.

She’s out. Along with the whole gang. Bush, Cheney. They could not think of helping Trump or the American voters. Trump was president elected. Twice. They were part of the worse obstructors.
They beLieberman that because they were powerful once that they were in the White House that they will always be in power and that we and Trump can never ignore them and put them behind. That because they believe that it will never change

They are wrong

She is out b

Her problem was not that she merely opposed Trump. Trump was her white whale. She obsessed about Trump. She had her say, after which she should have gotten on with winning elections and stopping Biden and his handlers, instead of dividing the party.

We have our share of moron voters in the GOP!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We can see that in spades in South Carolina, they re-elected Flimsey Grahamnesty TWICE after he voted for amnesty THREE times.

Then we can talk about Utah (Romney & Lee) and Arizona (McCain & Flake)

I remember when the mere name of Cheney threw liberals into hysterical fits claiming the antichrist was the embodiment.

My how they revise history by the minute to suit their needs.....

She’s a denier of voter fraud.

To keep it simple, in the future I will simply call such people “deniers.”

I’d better not say what I’m thinking about the Cheney Skank and her friends, or I’ll get booted. Suffice it say, I’m not kind about her&Co.

One thing for sure, we can now spot the traitor in our midst who was probably passing GOP planning and messaging info to her handlers in the other party. She was and is bat s..t crazy with TDS.

While they are flocking to interview her, one should ask if her father has let her in on where Saddam had the WMDs. In one family a chicken hawk and a stink bug.

With a little help, I bet she does an excellent Phyllis Diller improv very well.
