Liz and Dick Cheney's ad takes it to the GOP
The Washington Post ^ | August 7, 2022 | Jennifer Rubin

Posted on 08/08/2022 7:36:32 AM PDT by Trump20162020

It is not often that you see Democrats tear up over a message from former vice president Dick Cheney. However, his campaign ad for his eldest daughter, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) — part swan song, part defiance, part nostalgia — tells us more about the decrepit state of the GOP than any Democrat’s ad has this cycle.

“In our nation’s 246-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump,” he declares. Coming from a former vice president and defense secretary responsible for defending America against hostile nations and foreign terrorists, that’s quite a statement.

By contrast, Cheney says, his daughter Liz “is fearless.” And in a rebuke to the cringing careerists and Trump toadies, he declares, “There is nothing more important she will ever do than lead the effort to make sure Donald Trump is never again near the Oval Office, and she will succeed.”

The ad is hilarious

A creepy, malevolent old man making an outrageous, despicable statement about a man he took millions from who then chatters about how great his little girl is.

A disgusting spectacle from a grifter family that thinks they’re royalty.

The Founders outlawed titles of nobility and thus inherited monarchies. The vile, turncoat, power mad Cheneys demonstrate why they did that.

“In our nation’s 246-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump,”

So she's an apologist for Hitler, Mao, and Stalin. Figures.

Contrasted with corrupt “W” Bush, he seemed like a pillar of patriotism. Must have been an optical delusion.

Liberals only care about the opinions of Republicans when it suits their liberal interests.

If you define (i.e., re-defining words is what commie trash do to corrupt communication) “our democracy” as “how we personally benefit from a corrupt, unstoppable system”; then, yeah, DJTrump is dangerous.

Dick says a lot about Trump in this ad.


Just shows how much losing control of their Party is killing the Bush loyalists and RINOs. It wasn’t supposed to be this way. Jeb! was supposed to win the nomination in 2016, but probably would have run a “dignified” campaign & lost to Hillary in the GE. At some point, they would have nominated other losers too, like Paul Ryan. Even if these people somehw won, it would have been more of the same Globalist agenda (with more window dressing maybe).

If there is one thing I will be forever grateful to Trump for, is he was a leader who fought. He would have won had he not let himself be mislead by the Covid “experts”.

Rubin and the Cheneys. Has a less inspiring group of people ever existed?

Maybe Liz is taking lessons from Dr. Jill on how to influence people through an old man who doesn’t actually know what is going on.

The Uniparty thinks the Republican party belongs to them.

Your job is to mindlessly vote for them, give them money, and go die in their wars.

The left told us for years that Dick Cheney was a scheming violence-loving fascist.

This ad doesn’t get made without Rona Romney McDaniel’s approval.

Amazing. Leftists have even fully rehabilitated Dick Cheney. And it only took 15 years.

An opinion piece in the Washington Post is directed at the swamp critters that read this paper. Their opinion articles carry as much weight as something you read in the NY Times. A self-respecting conservative will stop reading this drivel after the first paragraph.
