That definitely corroborates about his text message that he claims was, "missing a comma." Pence was all for until he realized Trump actually didn't have anything under control and would throw Pence under the bus. No loyalty amongst Trump's loyalists.
And instead of telling anyone she sat on it, for her book.
This country is fucked.
So did every other mad fucker with a book deal. Fucking Bob Woodward sat on his Trump/COVID interview for months so he could put it in a book.
I've got no respect anymore for anyone that writes a book about current/recent events.
Every. Fucking. Time
Don't buy this shit, folks
Her dad shot a guy in the face, and a week later the guy apologized to him.
Shit is severely fucked if Liz Fucking Cheney is the voice of reason.
We usually don't evaluate someone's reasonableness based on things their dad did. Not this millennium anyway. Perhaps there's something from her own political career.
I’m not too familiar with Liz Cheneys actions before the insurrection, did she do anything to try and stop it happening or just sit back, watch and write a book later?
She was actively and strongly against Trump during his whole term and it costed her Wy. senate seat. Agreed though, if she had over heard this why didn't she raise the alarm.
Answer: because she's a dirty, conservative Republican.
For sure, those are lodestone issues. I think at this point Trump is the only person who could break from those and still be considered a Republican. Cheney was a loyal Republican, but not loyal to Trump. No pity for her though and I want the whole party to go down in flames.
I don't remember her being actively and strongly against Trump prior to Jan 6th. Wasn't she number 3 in the house leadership before Jan 6th? Her stance that Trump attempted a coup is what lost her seat.
She's still a Republican. She doesn't want to sink the party she just wants a different leader, but she's happy with all the trade-offs the GOP has made to get the loyalty Trump has from his base. Just get rid of Trump and keep the spoils.
It's a good thing she told all of the right people that this happened so that we could avoid an obvious coup and threat to the constitution that she swore an oath to protect...
Amirite, guys?!?
Why did the room get so quiet?
Why didn’t she say anything to anybody before Jan 6?!
I like the parliamentarian :)
How did she just happen to be listening in on this call?
