Rep. Liz Cheney’s political career is coming to an end. As it should be. Every anti-Trump Republican who holds public office must be primaried.

Liz Cheney Says Trump Should Not Be ‘Playing a Role’ in U.S., GOP’s Future Ahead of His CPAC Speech

By Newsweek, February 24, 2021

Story continues below advertisement

Wyoming Republican Rep. Liz Cheney said Wednesday that former President Donald Trump should not be “playing a role” in the country and the Republican Party going forward.

While speaking to reporters, Cheney was asked if she believes that Trump should speak at the upcoming Conservative Political Action Committee (CPAC).

“That’s up to CPAC. I’ve been clear about my views about President Trump and the extent to which, following January 6, I don’t believe that he should be playing a role in the future of the party or the country,” Cheney said.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy was also present when reporters asked the question and in response, he said, “yes he should.”

Shortly after Cheney’s comments, McCarthy said, “On that high note, thank you very much,” as the two walked away.

The comments from Cheney come just a few days before Trump is expected to speak at CPAC, which will be his first major speaking appearance since leaving office.

Cheney was one of 10 House Republicans who voted in favor of impeaching Trump for “incitement of insurrection” as many believed his rhetoric sparked the violent riot on January 6, when the then-president’s supporters breached the building in protest of Congress certifying state’s electoral votes.

Since voting in favor of impeaching Trump, Cheney has continued to criticize the former president, prompting disagreements among Republican lawmakers on which direction the party should move.

In response to her impeachment vote and criticism of Trump, Cheney was censured by the Wyoming Republican Party and faced calls for her removal from her role as the party’s conference chairwoman.

The Dems realize that America curiously has Two Presidents. And the one who likes to golf, is more popular, more liked and infinitely smarter that the other one who by several orders of magnitude is less popular, hardly liked and dumb beyond measure.

Every action that basement Joe does or says, wakes up more Democrats everyday – that something is dangerously wrong with Obama’s marionette.

How did she ever end up getting elected in Wyoming? Wyoming is more conservative than Nebraska. Of course, I wonder how Ben Sasse got elected here but he didn’t act as crazy before he got elected either. I think if he had a decent opponent he would have lost but the democoms put up someone even nuttier than Sasse. I doubt he ever gets elected again. Everyone I talk to hates him.

Cheney is a deceitful, corrupt and morally bankrupt nepotistic functionary of the lowest nadir of patriotism as the last refuge of the scoundrel — her bloodthirsty father Dick Cheney and his dupe and dunce, nepotistic fool, What, Me Worry, George Bush, Jr.
The endless ads and solicitations we see for assistance to all the American youth left disfigured and dismembered by the Deep State March of Folly and stoking military-defense investments like their own premium Social Security funds are YOUR obligation.
The Triumph of Evil is Liz Cheney denouncing deposed President Trump at a press conference.

“Wyoming Republican Rep. Liz Cheney said Wednesday that former President should not be “playing a role” in the country and the Republican Party going forward.” Why should any republican, or any American for that matter, care what Liz Cheney has to say. Just another hack, who’s time for leaving is long past due. Her mic needs to be turned off and she ignored. ‘GTFO, Liz.’

I want to primary the whole Republican Party it’s so fuqin weak. Everything the democrats have done is with Republican approval and support. For fuq sakes Mike Lee just increased the H1B visas from 30,000 to 125,000 so that cheap labor foreigners can take the job of high paid Americans. You bumbling idiots still supporting Republicans are light-years behind, very low information. If Trump decides to stay with that party after what they did and are still doing then he must have been threatened. No way with any logic at all is Trump supporting that party.

Trump is invited to speak at CPAC and will attend.
Liz Cheney is not invited to speak at CPAC and will not attend.

So who is setting the course of the future? Cheney or Trump.
I think we know the answer.

Sometimes we are truly taken by surprise which politicians are actually Democrats disguised as Republicans. Those who have turned on us in the past like Romney and Ryan were bad enough. Those who became Democrats like Flake, Crist, and Bloomberg were no surprises. Even broadcasters like Wallace were not shockers. But Liz we thought was with us, not the Deep State.

Who made Liz Cheney the star? I think she just spoke the most definitively, her point of view, backed by others as well. Probably oversimplifying it for myself. She seems like one of those who want to keep Conservatism going the old way because they did okay for so long.
