Rep. Liz Cheney said in an interview with Punchbowl News Thursday that she will stand behind her vote to impeach former President Trump “every day of the week” as she faces multiple primary challengers in her 2022 reelection effort.
Cheney, R-Wyo., is the chair of the House Republican conference and has taken heat from many on the right over her vocal condemnation of Trump after the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol by a mob of his followers.
That has spurred Trump’s wrath in multiple forums and triggered a handful of Republicans to announce primary challenges to her — Trump said in a statement earlier this month he will endorse one of them soon.
But Cheney told Puncbbowl News that she has no plans to back away from her stance that impeaching Trump was the right thing to do.
“I’m confident I’m gonna win. It’s gonna be, certainly, a challenging primary. I’m preparing for that right now. We’ve got multiple opponents,” Cheney told the publication on a podcast that will be released in full later Thursday.
She needs to go to some desert and stick her head in the sand and stay there.
Behooves the Wyoming Republican party to settle on a challenger before the primary so she can’t split the vote.
Republicans in the House need to take her leadership post away ASAP. It provides her cover.
It’s hardball; play to win.
A diversionary tactic to hide her own impeachability.
Tell her DUGH Trump Already WON the SHAM attempts by Dumocrats to Impeach him TWICE !!!!!
