Liz Cheney plans to go national
Axios ^ | 17 Aug 22 | Mike Allen

Posted on 08/17/2022 9:21:52 AM PDT by seanmerc

Allies of Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) tell Axios that after last night's primary loss, they expect her to start a super PAC — which would attract lots of wealthy, anti-Trump Republican donors.

Why it matters: Forming a national group would signal a run in the '24 GOP primaries, giving a real voice to anti-Trump Republicans.

Driving the news: It sure looked like a presidential-campaign stage when Cheney — vice chair of the House Jan. 6 committee — conceded Wednesday night in Jackson, Wyo. She immediately teased a '24 presidential run.

Here is the ugly truth about those who betray.

Once you have been a traitor in your own camp, NOBODY ANYWHERE WILL EVER TRUST YOU AGAIN. The world knows for sure you have no loyalties to anyone but yourself.

Liz Cheney will find she has ended her term as an idiot useful to Democrats. They won’t need her as a “converted” communist. They have plenty of the real thing.

>> That was the plan all along…

Not sure about that. I think the plan was to destroy Trump and revive the neocons via House committees. But anticipating the primary loss — certainly.

The Rats are having difficulty with Trump’s ongoing success re Primary picks. They seem to be in denial that it’s actually happening.

No, good for her.

It is like putting Kamala in the Veep seat — she is out of CaCaLand. The rest of y’all can now enjoy her.

Wyoming is getting rid of their “village idiot”. I know, make her an ambassador.

I was listening to KFI 640 radio here in southern Calif. this morning and at the news break they did not say by how big of a loss that Liz Cheney was defeated by, instead the newsreader read off that she was defeated and was exploring running for president..... Another way of supporting the rinos / democrats. Omission of the facts.

Also the radio show has a host named Bill Handel who is very liberal and he stated that the country was moving far right and he knows people looking to move.

They always PROMISE but never do move, not even to Canada!

Liz Cheney lost by 37%!
She increased her money from $7 million in 2018 when she was first elected and now has $44 million.
The money rolling into congress members must be enormous.
She was a bit player.
Imagine what Pelosi, Biden, McConnell, etc etc are making.

A comment I came across today:

We have a right to know how Liz Cheney made 36 million dollars in only 6 years in Congress. This is the opposite of serving the people. Where did all that money come from?

May have something to do with fact that a poor Congresswoman after six years in office is a poor Congresswoman indeed!

she will definitely lose the R nomination

but her goal is to get Trump not get elected

she will try to be a spoiler in the general

rinos are desperately fighting to retain control of the R party

The good news is that they have the weakest grassroots support among the voters, and are now consistently getting their asses kicked in the major party primaries.

Unfortunately, they are deeply entrenched in the State Department, Justice Department, intelligence agencies, and even Defense (not to mention the media). It's going to take some serious spine to root them out. As we have seen over the past 6 years, they will fight every step, elections be damned.

Well Bidh had it twice so they’re passing it back and forth to each other. However I’m sure Jills enjoying not having to be around Biden now and let the family and staff handle him....needless saying he does need handlers....and she’s not far from it herself.
