Cheney, who’s held Wyoming’s sole congressional seat for five years, had been Trump’s main target in his revenge plot to purge the Republican Party of members he deems disloyal to him.

Wyoming voters took an axe
and gave Lizzie forty whacks.

He’s not purging the GOP of his critics.

The sweet smell of Victory! We have not smelled this in California for many a year, only the stench of tyranny. Let this be an Omen for the elections in November!

Hopefully she can now get the treatment she so desperately needs for her psychological condition.

There are lots of good treatments now available.
