Liz Cheney says 'there is absolutely a cult of personality' around Trump, and condemns fellow Republicans for continuing to embrace him

Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming in a new interview took aim at her fellow Republicans who she says have pledged loyalty to former President Donald Trump rather than their oath of office.

"We have too many people now, in the Republican Party, who are not taking their responsibility seriously, and who have pledged their allegiance and loyalty to Donald Trump," the Republican lawmaker told CBS' Robert Costa in a clip of their interview that will air in full on Sunday.

"It is fundamentally antithetical, it is contrary to everything conservatives believe to embrace a personality cult," Cheney continued. "And yet, that is what so many in my party are doing today."

Costa asked Cheney whether she believes the GOP is a personality cult, to which she responded that "large segments" have become so.

"There is absolutely a cult of personality around Donald Trump," she added.

The congresswoman's comments come as she's gearing up for an intense political battle to hold on to her seat in Wyoming against Trump-backed opponent Harriet Hageman, a lawyer and former Republican National Committee member. Cheney officially filed for reelection last Thursday although she was already widely expected to re-run.

Trump, who's targeted Cheney over her vote to impeach him for his role in the January 6 Capitol riot, campaigned for Hageman at a rally last Saturday in Casper, Wyoming. Thousands of his supporters filled the indoor auditorium and cheered as Trump took the stage and attacked Cheney.

The Wyoming Republican primary takes place on August 16.

That there are so many “Americans” who oppose MAGA boggles my mind. For dems it’s just a game It doesn’t matter how many lives they destroy in order to win. I’m so disappointed in my fellow “Americans.”

Liz Cheney says ‘there is absolutely a cult of personality’ around Trump>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

And there was NOt such a cult of personality around the Magic Negro?He now has a third term through Proxy Joe.

At leaset the Trump cult supports the Constitution as written instead of attempting to destroy it.

Liz Ch3eny is going to lose her primary, and she knows it. Soon she will be yesterday’s stale news, a treasonous biatch of the ruling class.

Liz, I will see your Magic Negro bid and raise you two Trumps.Its a full house stack.You leewdzer!

Is there anything appealing about her at all?

She’s mad because Trump wouldn’t engage in any overseas wars during his administration.

A cult of personality? He’d have to have a less off-putting personality, wouldn’t he? It’s all about his pro-America pholosophy and the fact that he says what he means and means what he says.

Liz is always very jealous of Trump. She fancied herself as presidential material. Trump and the more populist MAGA movement that actually appealed and supported the voters stole her thunder.

As they say, you know them by who they align themselves with and we know who she chose.

Personality cult? Yes it’s a cult. It’s an anti-personality cult. We hate yellow-bellied traitorous self-dealing globalist crony capitalist dupes of the WEF and CCP RINOs like yourself.

What she seeks is a personality cult around people such as herself who have no personality.

Like all Bush Leaguers, her hate for Trump stems from his attempt to stop the bipartisan Bush Plan for North Mexico.

The real reason for the Trump hatred is that he attempted to disrupt their 30 year plan to fundamentally transform the USA into North Mexico, changing the demographics of the country against the will of the citizens with open borders.

Yes, of course. Most support for Trump is based on policy. Lizard can’t come out and say she is for open borders and unfair trade so she launches these gaslighting attacks on Trump. Any person successful enough to be elected POTUS is going to have a fan club of some sort. You have to have one to win.
