Washington Post and MSNBC contributor Washington Post and MSNBC contributor Jonathan Capehart compared Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., and former President Trump to Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader in "Star Wars" on Friday.
Capehart and New York Times columnist David Brooks appeared on "PBS News Hour" with Judy Woodruff to discuss various topics, including Cheney's upcoming primary.
Brooks called Cheney "a hero," but noted she is behind her Republican challenger by more than 22 percent and likely to lose her seat. That's when Capehart praised her as comparable to a beloved Jedi.
"And, look, I keep thinking about the scene in ‘Star Wars: Episode IV,’ when Darth Vader and Obi-Wan Kenobi are battling it out on the Death Star. And Obi-Wan says to Darth Vader, ‘If you strike me down, I will come back more powerful than you can imagine,’" Capehart said. He explained, "And, to me, Liz Cheney is Obi-Wan Kenobi. If she loses, which she very well might lose her primary on August 16, she could very well come back more powerful than Donald Trump has imagined. And if her goal is to ensure that he never comes within any manner of feet of the Oval Office, if she can succeed in doing that, she will have done a major service to the American experiment."

On that thought. How many saw the photos of the Murdoch wedding? Granddaughter I think. They were posted here awhile back I was thinking the Star Wars bar scene characters
A class act holding your little crank through your dress.
Impressive bunch those Murdochs. < /sarcasm >
I didn't know that he was running in Wyoming.
“And, to me, Liz Cheney is Obi-Wan Kenobi.”
And you’re a penis with ears. Your point is?
Partisan Media Shills and Stooges alert. Defund PBS, Defund NPR, Cancel NBC/CNBC/MSNBC.
I want to see and hear Brooks’ reaction after the November election.
Trouble is, no one in the MSM will do that.
Good catch...
