Sen. Mitt Romney said he could see Rep. Liz Cheney running for president in the future.
Still, Romney said he hopes Cheney wins her primary in Wyoming on Tuesday.
Cheney has not ruled out a 2024 presidential bid.
Republican Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah, a critic of former President Donald Trump and ally to GOP Rep. Liz Cheney, said he could see the congresswoman run for president in the future.
Cheney is fighting to hold on to her seat in Wyoming's Republican primary on Tuesday. The three-term lawmaker faces a tough reelection challenge against her main rival, Trump-backed opponent Harriet Hageman. Polls have shown Hageman in a double-digit lead.
"Her political future is something I'm sure she's considered. I hope she wins. I've hosted fundraisers for her. But I recognize that in the time of Trump that may not be possible," Romney told Insider at the Capitol on August 3.
"We'll see what happens. But I don't think she's gone by any means. I wouldn't be surprised to see her run for president," he added.
Trump has sought to oust Cheney from Congress since she voted to impeach him over the January 6, 2021 Capitol siege. Among the other pro-impeachment House Republicans who faced primaries against Trump-endorsed challengers this year, three have lost and two have won.

Romney would probably be handy for helping you move your furniture to a new place or assist you if you want to dig up imaginary golden plates but not for much else.....
I dont know. I know Republicans who like her. If both Ds and Rs vote for her she may have a chance.
Keep pitching, Mitt. You only sound stupider with every comment, if that is possible.
Romney is such a loser. He has the emotional intelligence of a rock, and the insight of asphalt.
Is she going to run as a Democrat or on 3rd party ticket?
Mitt says “Liz, I’m not your average republican. I am ‘severely conservative’! In addition to that, I am willing to work under you as your Vice President, but this is off the record for now..right?”
Our Republican mayor is worse. She’s apparently endorsed Mark Kelly.
Romney is a post turtle.
Mitt is so reliable and predictable. Just like the North Star.
Yes, true, and unfortunately his opponent was none other than Barack Hussein Obama. It was a losing proposition either way.
In 2024 it will be your turn Pierre.
I didn’t.
People didn’t realize Romney’s bio when he won the nomination.
Romney’s record was as a one-term failed carpetbagger Governor who left office with a 34% approval rating with no chance of reelection, yet somehow he was turned into a great national politician/statesman and the leading figure of the GOP.
Liz Cheney will never be super big because the media will never want her in power, but she probably will be a maximum pain in the, and will be able to get full coverage for her attacks against the GOP that reflects the media’s politics.
She has NO chance of being President or even being a spoiler
like Perot.
she has daddy’s donor list
that is how she got the number 3 position in pub leadership
her role will be as spoiler
The only Rs who like Liz are Never Trumpers, so they’re fakes too.
Polls have shown Hageman in a double-digit lead.
—
A perfect mini-example of MSM slant and bias. Ye, it’s factually correct Hageman has a double-digit lead. However, it hides the actual significant lead she has which is 30 points.
Memo for Romney:
Get ready. Don’t make any permanent changes to your DC office.
Ah good old Mittens. Still an idiot
He thinks he sees himself as president one day
All I can say for Liz is she isn’t hated as much as Hillary
