'Our children are watching': Defiant Liz Cheney asks Republicans to choose between 'basic principles' and Trump's 'crusade to undermine democracy' ahead of GOP vote to oust her as chair
Daily Mail ^ | 5/5/2021 | Geoff Earle

Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney has penned a slashing op-ed where she lays out a stark choice for her party between Donald Trump's crusade to 'delegitimize' Joe Biden's election and her own and fidelity to the U.S. Constitution.

Cheney issued the withering attack on elements of her own party as she prepares to confront difficult odds to maintain her elected leadership post.

Trump and Trump loyalist in Congress are already coming out against her, and Trump backer Elise Stefanik is already launching a campaign to replace her.

But Cheney, the daughter of the former vice president, cast the battle as one far bigger than her own political career.

'The Republican Party is at a turning point, and Republicans must decide whether we are going to choose truth and fidelity to the Constitution,' she wrote in the Washington Post Wednesday.

'The question before us now is whether we will join Trump's crusade to delegitimize and undo the legal outcome of the 2020 election, with all the consequences that might have.

except hillary was only projecting what they (dems) would do, because Trump legitamately won in 2016. Hillary likely meditated on it and was eager to join all those who stole the election from Trump in 2020.

If she means Democracy as in mob rule, well, yes, we do need to thwart/undermine those efforts. We are a representative Republic and they’d better not forget it,

Methinks a mass shooting by a "MAGA right wing extremist" in a urban area with an AR-15, and 10 or so 30 round P-Mags of M-885, is coming very, very soon.

The CIA/NSA/FBI is arranging for a patsy now to bail Cheney and the rest of the Fascist deep-staters out now that the COVID-19 pandemic is done, and the "Climate Crisis" is going nowhere.

But this time the MSM will release a mugshot and full bio BEFORE the shooting happens, just to be on the safe side ...

The basic principles are, in fact, the Trump vision for America. I think it his high time to set forth another “Contract for America” on which the 2022 and 2024 candidates for office can run.

Let us hope that Republicans vote that way and the MOUTH will be gone. She is really bad. She is definitely a democrat dressed as a Republican. She is awful!

My Congresswoman Claudia Tenney is supporting Elise Stefanik. I called her office today, and thanked her.

"I believe Donald Trump only wishes to EXPOSE the election malfeasance."

And those with R's behind their name who have condoned it.

Like the scene in the movie Wall Street where Douglas says “dump it”. Time to move on to another RINO. Next.

Is Cheney just this arrogant or does she totally have no clue?

The shrieking will get louder and louder as the Bushie, Globalist RINO’s finally realize they are ALL going to be flushed down the toilet one by one. I imagine the Whigs must have acted very much like this when their time was over and the people shitcanned them.

Please.. you aren’t principled... you are a hack who should have never been in leadership to begin with. Just because of who your daddy is...

Seriously, you first took office in 2017.. and were given a leadership position day one. You never deserved it... and should have never gotten it..

You being in leadership at all demonstrates everything that is wrong with thr GOPe/Uniparty
