Liz Cheney could take Jan. 6 warnings about Trump to GOP presidential primary
Roll Call ^ | July 29, 2022 | John T. Bennett

‘Ron DeSantis would love to have her on the debate stage to take Trump down,’ strategist says

Rep. Liz Cheney’s steely and forceful demeanor during the House Jan. 6 select committee’s public hearings has proved she is her father’s daughter. So it is no surprise the Wyoming Republican is not ruling out a presidential bid — even if to play a spoiler role.

“At this point, I haven’t made a decision on 2024,” she told CNN’s Jake Tapper on Sunday. “I’ll make a decision on 2024 down the road.”

“Her presidential primary prospects are limited. But she could make Trump’s life miserable during the campaign,” said Brad Bannon, a Democratic strategist. “Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis would love to have her on the debate stage to take Trump down.”

It would almost (actually, no, it wouldn't) be worth it for Liz Cheney to win the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, just so she could find out like John McCain what the left really thinks of her. She's used to them right now singing her praises and donating to her and saying she has all this "integrity," but they'd call her every name under the sun if she was actually the Republican nominee for president.

Polls show leftists in this country like George W. Bush, Liz Cheney and Mitt Romney more than anyone else (independents and conservatives). They always love these useful idiots right up until they run against them, then they become Literally Hitler overnight.

I will vote for the Democrat if Cheney is the nominee.

“They obviously want President Trump and Governor DeSantis at each other’s throats….”

As do a number of our resident Never Trumpers who are engaging in the same jihad.

I think you’re exactly right on all points.

You don’t even need to bother saying that, Liz Cheney wouldn’t win a national GOP primary in 2024 even if she was the only candidate running.

Yes. She could definitely cause a split in the Democratic vote.

If DeSantis was to bring her into his campaign he’d show himself to be too stupid to be president.
But I don’t believe this story at all.

It’s not about winning or spoiling. It’s about campaign contributions that can be spread amongst relatives who suddenly start a new “political consultant” business.

Watching Leftists try to understand those outside their cult is so pathetic.

Trump would destroy her. DeSantis is not going to run against Trump. Period.

She’ll take her vile hatred for Trump to the next phase of her career, if there is any such thing, even if she loses by 45 points. Which would almost be enough for me.

DeSantis needs to run in 2024 and prove his mettle. It’s a real bad sign if he ducks a match up against President Trump. That’s not how you beat violent Marxists.

No he’s not stupid and hope knows math. 4/years plus 8 years is better than just 8 years. He doesn’t have to “prove” anything by running against Trump when he believes in all the things Trump stands for.

DeSantis and Trump have a plan and that plan is Trump in for four more years being the bull in the China shop and then DeSantis coming in with brand new China to replace all that was broken.

She is not a Republican. What primary will she enter?

If he wants a political future, DeSantis should not run against Trump in 2024. Besides hurting himself politically, he would cause divisions within the party. Anyone think Cruz would challenge Trump in 2024?

Pence and Pompeo will probably challenge Trump and fail miserably.
