Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) is comparing former President Trump's election claims to those of the Chinese Communist Party, concluding “it’s very dangerous and damaging.”
“When you listen to Donald Trump talk now, when you hear the language he's using now, it is essentially the same things that the Chinese Communist Party, for example, says about the United States and our democracy,” Cheney said on “The Axe Files” podcast, which was released on Monday.
“When he says that our system doesn't work ... when he suggests that it's, you know, incapable of conveying the will of the people, you know, that somehow it's failed — those are the same things that the Chinese government says about us," Cheney continued. “It's very dangerous and damaging ... and it's not true.”
Cheney’s remarks come nearly one month after she was removed from her leadership position, in part because of her anti-Trump stance. She repeatedly called out Trump for his false claims of election fraud and refused to give credibility to his belief that the 2020 election was stolen.
Cheney was replaced by Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) as House GOP Conference chair. Minutes after her ouster, Cheney vowed to “do everything I can to ensure that the former president never again gets anywhere near the Oval Office.”
During the podcast interview, Cheney also condemned House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) for meeting with Trump in Mar-a-Lago following the Jan 6. attack at the Capitol by the former president's supporters.
She said she was “stunned” when she saw McCarthy meeting with Trump, adding, “I could not imagine any justification for doing that.”
She said Trump committed the “most dangerous” and “most egregious” violation of an oath of office of any president in history, and McCarthy's meeting with the former president was “inexcusable.”
"And so the idea that a few weeks after he did that, the leader of the Republicans in the House would be at Mar-a-Lago, essentially, you know, pleading with him to somehow come back into the fold, or whatever it was he was doing, to me was inexcusable,” she said.
McCarthy and Trump both backed Cheney’s ouster and endorsed Stefanik to replace her as the number three House Republican.
Who gives a flying **** what Liz Cheney has to say about anything?! Shame on Wyoming for giving her a platform.
Cheney’s claims compare to Liberal Communist Party psychobabble. Spewing a bunch of words that don’t mean anything.
“Well you go your way and I’ll go mine
Now and forever ‘till the end of time
I’ll find somebody new and baby
We’ll say we’re through and you won’t matter anymore”
Hey Liz, You don’t MATTER, anymore!

She became a leader because a majority in the GOP caucus elected her to leadership.
We need a major House cleaning.
The one-worlder speaks.
Do all these Anti-Trumpers work for the Chinese Communist Party ?
That’s
Comrade
Cheney.
Hey Lez, STFU!
Unlike the Uniparty, which IS the Chinese Communist Party.
Two reasons
1. She is an arrogant person
2. She doesn’t have the mental capacity or intellectual honesty to understand that nobody cares what she thinks, especially those of us in Wy who are waiting for 2022 to vote her ass out.
Different riot/insurgency, same comparison of Donald Trump to the Chi-Coms.
Schumer compares Trump’s Lincoln Memorial protection to Tiananmen Square

The Senate’s top Democrat compared the Trump administration’s use of the military to protect the Lincoln Memorial from protester damage to the 1989 Chinese government crackdown and killing of demonstrators in Tiananmen Square.
“Rows of camouflaged troops standing at attention on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, like an occupying force defending a critical position,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said in a Senate floor speech Wednesday. “When you see the image of troops dressed for combat, flanking the Lincoln Memorial, an altar to freedom, you cannot help but think of Tiananmen Square.”
President Trump ordered the D.C. National Guard to line the steps of the Lincoln Memorial after protesters vandalized the site over the weekend with black spray paint.
The presence of the troops drew sharp criticism from some who said it was unwarranted.
“I never thought I’d live to see the day when troops would be guarding the Lincoln Memorial,” Rep. Ro Khanna, a California Democrat, tweeted...
Stalinists lie. Always
Maybe but the Republican Party have her a high seat of power based upon her family name.
She hates George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, etc. as well. 81 million votes for Biden? Hahaha. Right.
She had a taste of celebrity and power. She can’t get used to being just fat, unattractive, and unimportant. We should cut the narcissist some slack and just ignore her.
yeah...Who? Go build a skyscraper or something Liz. You’re done!
I think you be are right.
The Bushies voted against Trump, expecting to jump back in to replace him.
Turncoats, basically. It seems.
Can’t understand why she digs in so desperately. Have to assume there’s something big in it for her. Follow the money.
“you know” is a lame interjection.
I give the broad credit.
She’s doubling-down no matter how badly this will effect her.
She’s committed.... or she should be!
Cheney,
“Trump’s call for peaceful patriotic protest is unforgivable.
It’s the same thing the Communist Chinese Party requires of their members”
