Wyoming Republican Rep. Liz Cheney alleged Thursday that then-President Donald Trump said during last year’s Capitol riot that Vice President Mike Pence “deserves” to be hanged as Trump supporters chanted “hang Mike Pence.”
Cheney, the vice chair of the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, riot, laid out the claim during her opening statement at the committee’s first primetime hearing — which was highlighted by a 10-minute video tracing the course of the violence as it unfolded, soundtracked by increasingly frantic radio communications from Washington DC and US Capitol Police.
“You will hear that President Trump was yelling and ‘really angry’ at advisers who told him he needed to be doing something more,” Cheney said, “and — aware of the rioters’ chants to hang Mike Pence — the president responded with this sentiment quote: ‘Maybe our supporters have the right idea.’ Mike Pence quote ‘deserves it.'”

I say expel her from the party the day after the primary in August. She intends to go down fighting. Two can play.
What a perfectly fraudulent hit job.
...and her point is?
Mr. Trump’s biggest, hugest accomplishment was/is exposing the cockroaches to the searchlight.
sLiz is nuttier than squirrel poop. Did Trump say something mean about her daddy?

All I could hear was Cheney yelling, Invade somebody, you axxh0les!
The old coot costs money, and it’s not coming out of my Dividends!

The Truth is there is mounting evidence that Pence had his Chief of Staff busy for 3.5 yrs trying to get Never Trumpers into Trump’s cabinet, and we know Strzok thought he was receptive to the 25th amendment move as a final stab, and his book deal would go from $4 Million to $12 Million.

I do not think highly of Mike Pence, but the proper remedy was for state legislatures to make the final choice of electors as they could per Article II, Section 1.
This what the neocons mean when they say “we fight them overseas so we don’t fight them at home”.
Either we let them have wars in other countries or they’ll have wars here.
My grandfather had a phrase for guys like Pence: Hangin’s too danged good for him.

She must be drinking Nancy’s vodka. That never happened
So he’s not on tape saying this. He’s not on television saying this. But someone said he said this.
President Trump also said he hoped Pence would “do the right thing.”
To try to turn his comments into some kind of support for murdering Pence is ridiculous.
If there was any justice, a freak accident would happen to this staged theatrical production and it would all go up in flames and smoke.
If so I’d give it a standing ovation for artistic merit.
Did anyone watch this Stalinist show trial last night? Anyone able to suffer through it? I assume it came across pretentious, contrived as hell like all things democrats do?
And thank you Republicans for fighting back by holding an investigation just like this into the Russia collusion hoax which was the only REAL attempted coup around here. Oh wait a minute, you didn’t. What a suprise.
“You will hear” feh...
Well, she was elected by the people. So why all the crying? She did not change after she was elected. She is the same bitch she was before she was elected as she was after she was elected. They elected her knowing what a bitch she was. So, again, why the crying?
