Rep. Liz Cheney, recently dubbed a “Pelosi Republican” by Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, has lost the support of her constituents and is on the fast track to losing her next election in 2022.
According to polling data, a mere 23 percent of primary-voting Republicans plan to vote for her again—a whopping 77 percent plan to vote for someone else.
Cheney’s image has been destroyed by her vote to impeach Trump earlier this year and her support for the partisan January 6 commission.
President Trump wants to use his influence in the party to push out wobbly Republicans who didn’t support his Make America Great Again agenda. On Thursday, he called on the Wyoming Republican Party to pare down the number of Republicans running against Cheney to just one candidate rather than risk Cheney winning the primary with a plurality of votes. In a six-person race, Cheney could still come out the victor, but should the race end up between Cheney and just one or two other challengers, she’d likely be defeated.
“Voters in the Great State of Wyoming want clear majority winners in elections, and the only mechanism that accomplishes majority victors is a Run-Off Election, pitting the top two candidates against each other,” Trump said in a statement. “Conservative Republicans in the Wyoming State Legislature like Senator Bo Biteman and Representative Chip Nieman led this effort. Unfortunately and sadly for Wyoming voters, RINO State Legislators stood in the way, defeating the Run-Off Election bills.”

If you do, get some sort of an extender, and stand back...
...way way back.
*APPLAUSE* Bye-Bye! :)
Turtle will support her
There are seven declared candidates for the Republican primary. So 23 percent could well be enough.
Cheney may be a Pelosi Republican to him now, but McCarthy is still a Bush League Republican that wanted her to remain in leadership in February along with 144 other GOP House members.
Just move to NY and switch parties…then she can hobnob with nancy aoc and the squad…suits her political views better…
Yep.
Ms. Cheney isn’t done until she’s out of office, and nobody in DC is going to make that happen, only people living in Wyoming.
She will be ready-elected. Democrats will see to it !
It is a long way from 2022. Kind of too early to say she is done.
She’s done as an Assistant Democrat, but she might make it as an genuine Democrat.
I’ll take that bet!
I will donate to whomever keeps her from getting another two years in Congress.
She’s still got voter fraud by the Democrats on her side.
She is a coup plotter. It is not enough to kick her out of congress.
She deserves the ultimate punishment, along with the others that were responsible for the coup against the duly elected president, Donald J Trump.
Maybe appointed to fill the Senate vacancy??
I wish we could see the same with Kinzinger and even the rest of the corrupt, traitorous House 10...
What Senate vacancy?
“… According to polling data, a mere 23 percent of primary-voting Republicans plan to vote for her again—a whopping 77 percent plan to vote for someone else.…”
***************************************************************
If that 77% are split between 5 or more other candidates and she holds to the 23%… she has a plurality and wins. There is no runoff since a majority is not required. Let’s not allow the GOPe to play SPLIT-THE-CHALLENGER-VOTE yet again to keep one of theirs in office.
He’s a scumbag careerist phony who very publicly cheated on his wife.
I hated the GOP for picking this useless trash bag.
