Cheney: I Will Do Whatever It Takes Including Presidential Run to Stop Trump
breitbart.com ^ | 10/22/2022 | Pam Key

Outgoing Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that she will do whatever it takes, including running for president, to stop Donald Trump from becoming president again.

Anchor Chuck Todd said, “Donald Trump ends up the nominee in 2024. You’ve said you won’t be a Republican anymore, so it implies you think the party can be saved.”

Cheney said, “I think the party has to come back from where we are right now, which is a dangerous and toxic place, or the party will splinter, and there will be a new conservative party that rises if Donald Trump is the nominee of the Republican Party, the party will shatter, and there will be a conservative party that rises in its place.”

Todd asked, “What would it take for you to run for president?”

Cheney said, “I’m going to be focused on all the things we’ve been talking about. I care deeply, as I know you do, as millions of people do about this nation and about the blessing we have an a constitutional republic. So whether that means helping other candidates, helping to educate people around the country, I have been on a number of college campuses, very inspired by the young people, but I’m focused on what we have to do to save the country from this very dangerous moment we’re in, not right now on whether I’m going to be a candidate or not.”

Todd said, “Some people suggest if he would be a third-party candidate it will by enough to stop Trump.”

Cheney said, “Well we’ll so whatever it takes as I said. He will not be president again.”

Her future will not be in elected office and the swamp will reward her handsomely with 6-figure board positions, a lucrative media deal, and a high paying consultant position.

If you pay attention to the workings of DC you quickly realize that the most lucrative gig in town for any Republican is to have TDS and be vocal about it.

Crybaby will get lucrative deals too so he can afford more kleenex.

They are laughing all the way to the bank. Look at those who perverted justice within FBI and DOJ. They are all making bank.

So as a last resort, she would run for president??? Not because she wants to serve her country and it’s citizens? Just because she hates Trump? Wow. But not surprised. She sounds enraged.

She may go 3rd party giving the Never Trump Rinos a place to go. In a 51-49 race she could bleed off enough to cause a problem..maybe.

My first thought when she said “whatever it takes” is that Lizard wants to put a hit on Trump. Not saying I’m right just saying that’s my first thought.

She would poll worse than Kamala did in her run. I doubt she would even be invited to a debate.

She won’t run in the primaries. She won’t have to. She’ll just run as an independent, and get tons of money from the GOPe, all meant just to hurt Trump in the Swing States, just enough to tip the balance in favor of the Rat.

Knock yourself out Liz! You wrote thousands of people who aren’t even your constituents during your primary campaign, begging them for money. I got one of your letters, even though I changed my Republican registration to “No Party” after January 6th because of people like you. Your begging campaign obviously didn’t work, or you’d be on the ballot for the midterms. If you enjoy being totally embarrassed, and having your ass handed to you, don’t let me try to stop you.

she’s so completely insane that even a rubber room might not protect her

(I didn’t care very much for her father’s politics... but at least he was not a total mental basket case. How did this woman become so cracked up?)

Astute observation. I still like Trump, but I think DeSantis will end up the GOP nominee. Who will face off against governor hair gel, November 2024.

“ She won’t run in the primaries. She won’t have to. She’ll just run as an independent, and get tons of money from the GOPe, ”

She could easily end up tipping the election to Trump by drawing single women Democrat voters away from Biden or whoever the Dems put up.

Liz and her millions in donations. Money is the mother’s milk for hacks campaigns. No money, no running for office. You even need money to run for dog catcher.

Before I began this comment, I noticed that many others have appropriately mentioned $$$$$$. LIZard will, like many, many democRATS, and a few RINOs, organize nonprofits and pacs to funnel millions to herself and others. Also, if she actually attempts to run a real campaign, she will forever have the adjective ‘former prez candidate’ attached to her name.

Also, she may tap into the Bernie Sanders method. Besides all the millions Bernie and his wife sucked in, it seemed that part of the payoff for ceasing his prez campaign (several times) was another house, mansion, etc. He now has 4, 5, 6, and one of these is a lake house. Like every other well-connected ‘Socialist’ he is living large.

Since nevertrumprs and Dems consider Trump a “dangerous” “fascist” “pro-Putinisr”, why would they NOT have cheated to defeat him in 2020? Would anybody blame Mussolini opponents for cheating to get him out?

as Liz says, “whatever it takes”
