Cheney Focused on Trump as Rumors Swirl 

Representative Liz Cheney was soundly defeated by Trump supporter Harriet Hageman in the Wyoming Republican primary two weeks ago.

Cheney has only a few months left in office, but she is still dead set on utilizing her position on the Democrat-led January 6 committee to attack outgoing President Trump.

On Monday, September 19, Cheney will lead the American Enterprise Institute’s annual Constitution Day Lecture, as reported by Politico. The Wyoming Republican’s speech will center on the necessity of Lincoln’s “demand for a patriotism built on reverence to the Constitution in maintaining our inheritance of liberty and the need to reject the growth of a “mobocratic attitude.” That’s not a fluke. In her concession speech, Cheney hinted that she would run against Trump in 2024.

The way was unambiguous. However, doing so would have compelled me to accept President Trump’s false prediction for the 2020 election. It would have meant supporting his ongoing efforts to dismantle our democratic system and assault the fundamentals of our country, she explained. That was a road I was not willing to go down. Cheney hinted at a run in 2024 when she said Abraham Lincoln had lost House and Senate elections “before he won the most important election of them. She may run for president in 2024 as a Republican, she said on TODAY.

It’s not something I’m going to announce here this morning; that’s a decision I’ll be making in the next few months. But it is something that I am thinking about, and I’ll make a decision in the coming months, Cheney said when asked if she has pondered a run for the White House. Cheney has made it abundantly apparent that preventing Trump from becoming president is now her top concern.

It’s impossible for America to keep its independence if we stop caring about the truth. The misconception that the presidential election of 2020 was stolen is pervasive. It targets patriots, she warned Wyoming voters in her last campaign video before her primary loss. Trump has opened the door for manipulation of the American people in which they will surrender their ideals, sacrifice their freedom, excuse murder, and disrespect the judgments of our courts and the rule of law.

The way Cheney has been talking lately, she seems willing to accept defeat as the price she must pay to pursue her vengeance against Trump. In a late-month appearance on Fox News Sunday, Cheney declared, I am working hard to earn every single vote.

Yet she continued, Given the choice between maintaining my seat in the House of Representatives on the one hand or ensuring the survival of our constitutional republic and ensuring the people know the truth about Former President Trump, I will vote for the Constitution and the truth every day of the week, including twice on Sunday.
