I Don’t Donate to Politicians, but I Will to Liz Cheney
The Wall Street Journal ^ | August 5, 2022 | Joseph Epstein

Posted on 08/05/2022 8:43:05 PM PDT by Trump20162020

I am a minor-league philanthropist. I give modest sums to animal shelters, the preservation of wildlife, children’s hospitals, my local public library, the Simon Wiesenthal Foundation and several other organizations and institutions. I don’t give to universities, lest they think I encourage their wanderings from their true mission—although I have considered giving $5,000 to Northwestern University, where I taught for 30 years, and earmarking the money to be spent exclusively on a Jewish tight end for the football team.

I have never given money to politicians or political parties. Yet I am about to send a $200 check to Liz Cheney for her Wyoming congressional campaign. Ms. Cheney, who is trailing more than 20 points in the polls against Trump-backed candidate Harriet Hageman, appears all but guaranteed to lose her congressional seat in the Aug. 16 primary. She says she has been unable to campaign openly because of credible death threats posed, one assumes, by ardent Trump supporters. The Republican Party in her home state has abandoned her. It not only endorsed Ms. Hageman but flatly refuses to recognize Ms. Cheney as a Republican.

I also do not donate to politicians, except maybe a vote.

Cheney wouldn’t get that while I am alive.

Hopefully not when I am dead

Does this mean that the once respected Wall street Journal has come out of the closet?

What a waste of a good newspaper.

Bye Bye WSJ....

Well, isn't that special. One assumes the author is more than a little biased doesn't one?

Go ahead. She’s gonna lose though and lose badly. So if you want to flush your money down the toilet, that’s your business.

Fight back the tears. So inspiring to give to yet another RINO for her ego trip.

A stupid one presumes that. More intelligent observers presume that the death threats come from the imagination of Liz Cheney.

... but flatly refuses to recognize Ms. Cheney as a Republican.

How dare the Republican Party in that state! Without question, "Ms. Cheney" is, in fact, a "Republican" ... In Name Only. Get it right!

Here's the RINO politicians' story in a nutshell: The very popular, very successful Republican U.S. President Donald Trump is the greatest "threat to our republic!" (actual quote from a former "Republican" Vice President who shall go unnamed)

That's even more reason we should all have total blind faith that "President" senile Sleepy Joe & "Vice President" Kamala "Laughing Hyena" Harris will continue successfully leading America forward (for the next 14 1/2 years) ... that's another 6 1/2 years of senile Sleepy Joe "in charge" followed by 8 years of "President" Laughing Hyena.
