Problem: Rep. Liz Cheney lost the Wyoming primary to her opponent, Harriet Hagemann.
Rep. Tip O'Neill, a prominent Massachusetts politician, routinely said, "All politics is local.""Liz gets deep' 6'd' August 17).
But at a time when our country has so many domestic problems, including rampant inflation, rising crime, climate change, energy and food insecurity, Congressman Liz Cheney and other politicians decided to waste a lot of time and money. The relentless attempt to destroy former President Donald Trump will only further polarize America's already divided populace. The warning should be heeded. Americans care more about the issues they face every day than the Inquisition on January 6th or President Trump.
If they don't listen, expect more "shocking" losses in her November this year.

Chasing Trump, Cheney Supports Democrats . term while they are ruining the country.
Cheney moved to Wyoming only to use his last name to win a seat in the House of Representatives. She deserved to be defeated because she squeezed the system to serve herself.Hope she doesn't run into the door on her way out, Elizabeth.

I tend to lean left politically, but Cheney , integrity, courage that made her the best choice to move our country forward.
She holds onto classic Republican values — less government regulation, stronger defenses, lower corporate taxes, tougher crime, etc. — not for political convenience. , because of her core beliefs.
She lost her seat in Congress over her courageous stand to oust Trump from power.
Some things are more important than being re-elected. Cheney stands out among her Republican colleagues. Because she will go that route and not lose her loyalty to our Constitution to stick to her seat. Cheney gets it.

I hope Liz lost the primary. Expert help with her Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Trump has lived in his head for years, but his poor, poor soul needs help now. God bless you, Liz. I hope you will take this opportunity to do better. "Never a Trumper" was swept in her Wyoming legislative race by an unnamed candidate, Harriet Hageman.
Cheney is a Republican, but along with her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney, the entire Bush clan, and traditional Bush-era Republicans, he opposed Trump.
Cheney's defeat closes the Republican book of the era. The election further demonstrates the former president's extraordinary momentum, boosting Trump supporters for "America First."
Mr Trump has been timid about running for his 2024 presidential election, but these victories strengthen his claim to remain the face and voice of the party.

Cheney was defeated. good!
She should investigate her father and former President George W. Bush for invading Iraq for no reason. How many innocent people were killed?

Wyoming has her 215,195 registered Republicans and 36,403 registered We have Democrats.
Whether you like Trump or not, you will not be a pawn by joining a committee full of Democrats.
Cheney led a Democratic witch hunt. Now she is considering running for president. who would want her? Democrats don't want her. She was their convenient idiot. they don't need her anymore.
