A 2024 ticket of former Vice President Mike Pence and Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney might just be the thing that saves the Republican Party and our republic. Since Donald Trump's descent on the golden escalator in 2015, there have been far too many missed offramps for Republican officials who did not want Trump to be the GOP presidential candidate in 2016. Next year might just be the last one of those offramps. A Pence-Cheney ticket would restore trust in America's democratic institutions and begin the strengthening of the political party structure within the GOP.
Debating whether Trump's popularity is waning within the party's voter base is futile. Trump's approval is not decreasing in any meaningful way and, for the purposes of this argument, it doesn't really matter. This is about party elites finally taking back control of their party from their radical constituents. Will they do it? Probably not because they're too afraid, but here's an assertion for how and why they should.
The Republican Party elites and party bosses missed their window to take Trump out in 2016. It's not that they didn't know what would happen. Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina tweeted on May 3, 2016: "If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed … and we will deserve it." Graham had the foresight to know what would happen if the Republican base voter took control of the party.
Republicans deserve to be taught a lesson and be punished electorally for putting party over country, but that doesn't seem likely. Many key statewide elections will undoubtedly go the GOP's way in key gubernatorial and secretary of state races. And many of those Republican winners may be untrustworthy with the keys to our democracy.

The author is a traitor.
Sadly, this is not from the Babylon Bee.
She is merely flinging red meat to get readers and pay her salary
Both those evil losers could run together in '24..... as Democrats.
Cruz is great on some things, but he’s just out there on others. I think it’s the Bushie neoCON globalism that creeps into his outlook that causes him to support bad stuff and bad people.
The key words that outs someone as a socialist/communist/facist America hating scumbag.
I disagree with the choice. Liz Cheney should run as President and Jeb Bush as Vice President. Then the “Whigs” will be complete. (//major sarcasm intended).
I did “read” the whole article but after the first paragraph I knew that it was super fine total bull merd. No.
I’m not entirely against immi, but there is absolutely no control over the borders and enforcement of law in the rest of the country. Criminals should be deported. Illegals should not enter in the first place until they go through some vetting.
“A 2024 ticket of former Vice President Mike Pence and Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney might just be the thing that saves the Republican Party and our republic.”
No comment needed. [nor a need to read furthur]
Judas & Lizard? Somebody is smoking crack with Hunter Biden.
From the article:
“A Pence-Cheney ticket would provide stable leadership along with traditional Republican values and policies.”
Yes, it would be a great ticket. It would lose, and RINO’s could go back to business as usual, as back benchers with big mouths and zero responsibilities.
Don’t forget, the Harlem Globetrotters’ nemesis, the Washington Generals, get a good cut of the gate.
I would not know where to start with the many ways this article is wrong.
Here it goes anyway:
1) It isn’t the man, it’s the movement. Amongst the many things the movement stands for is representing the constituents. You know, “democracy.”
2) The elites hate their constituents. Labeling them “radical” to justify that hate is silly and intellectually bankrupt. Labeling them radical also implies that the democrat party’s base is somehow “mainstream.” How convenient. Anything you stand for is nuts and illegal. Anything I stand for is cool and legal.
3) Youngkin’s main issue was one that was part and parcel with Trump’s movement. Namely, to fight woke indoctrination of our children in our schools. Youngkin championed this issue and ran a Trump type campaign despite the media and “elites” trying to shame him out of it by labellimg him racist, etc. Whereas the elites (Romney, etc) would have tucked tail and apologized, Youngkin would not. In short, he ran a Trumpian campaign and even called on the man himself at the end to come and lend a hand.
4) When a political party exists solely for its own elites is it a party or a club? And how does anyone support a club that their explicitly told they aren’t a part of and not welcome in? What is this political Jim Crow?
5) Just try to jam an elite down the electorate’s throat. He or she will lose because, well, see above.
6) Trump’s AGENDA, not just the man, expanded the base of the GOP beyond anything that the elites could have imagined. Working class whites and now many even more Hispanics. The elites response is to treat those voters as radical? Wow, way to really understand things. I know though, let your hatred of Trump cloud your every judgement.
7) Will these people ever stop and think for a sec. If Trump is as bad as they say, if he is so horrid, then how did such a person capture the nomination? Could it be that his agenda was dynamic and finally spoke to the electorates long felt needs, concerns and wants for this country and themselves. Could it be that they were tired of open borders, offshoring of jobs, wars with no end, etc? Could it? Nah, it’s that the GOP electorate is radical and racist. They secretly long for more Mitt Romney.
8) The suburbs alone will not win elections. But having the suburbs and the suburbs alone sure can lose em. See Romney, Mitt.
9) Because the media is radically leftist, you have to take them on to advocate for anything that isn’t their agenda. In doing so they will label you as the worst person ever and, I don’t care who you are, will give you the Trump treatment. It is unrelenting. If you back down in the face of that in the name of “civility” or whatever the euphemism for surrender is these days, you won’t be advancing the agenda any longer. You will just be Mitt Romney. I’ll pad on Mitt Pence, no offense.
A 2024 ticket of former Vice President Mike Pence and Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney might just actually lose to Kamala Harris.
ow...so this is what the Jewish people and the GOP in this country think of us little voters, that we need to just kneel and let our overlords remain in control? To continue to vote for them so they can rule us? The author of this piece of BS says it all doesn’t it?
Not if they switch parties and run as Democrats.
That depends on what the author owes loyalty to.
Her St. Louis Dispatch bio says "Center-right, RN, mom..." but she retweets Adam Kinziger, Liz Cheney and Evan McMullin, describes herself in a tweet as a "public RINO", is an avid follower of the January 6 committee, frequently retweets their "breaking news", congratulated Chris Murphy (D-CT) on his gun control bill, and retweets "Republicans for Mark Kelly".
Now, to be fair, unlike most of these "Republicans", her writings and her tweets do not have a heavy slant towards foreign wars on behalf of alien people, but she doesn't have a Wikipedia page and I don't belong to Linkedin, so a quick search doesn't tell much about her background or other loyalties.
She does not appear to be married to Steve Schmidt.
The American Jewish population want the USA to level the rest of the Middle East to protect Israel.
They do not want Israel to enter the war.
The goal is a proxy war.
The American neoConservatives desire a proxy war...ANYWHERE!
Right now, we’re too busy trying to get into a proxy war with Russia on behalf of the Ukraine.
Wars and proxy wars are $$lucrative$$ to the Intelligence Community, DoState, CIA and MOSSAD.
Trump put an end to that concept even though the IC was willing to do everything possible to undermine him, including several assassination attempts.
Good golly, we certainly cannot have the voter base of the Republican Party control the party. The Republican political elite must be in charge. The elite must run endless wars. There is lots of money politicians can “earn” through Military Industrial Complex spending.
Lynn Schmidt....., you are as insane as Robert Crimo III, Salvador Ramos and Stephen Paddock. Check yourself in to a mental ward, put on a straight jacket or stick to baking cookies.
