Liz Cheney calls GOP "very sick," questions whether party can recover
Axios ^ | August 7, 2022 | Julia Shapero

Posted on 08/07/2022 11:47:42 AM PDT by Trump20162020

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) said she believes the Republican Party is "very sick" and may not be able to recover in the near future.

The GOP "is continuing to drive itself in a ditch, and I think it’s going to take several cycles if it can be healed," Cheney said, according to The New York Times.

"I would much rather serve with (Democratic Reps.) Mikie Sherrill and Chrissy Houlahan and Elissa Slotkin than (Republican Reps.) Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert, even though on substance certainly I have big disagreements with the Democratic women I just mentioned," Cheney added, per the Times. "But they love this country, they do their homework and they are people that are trying to do the right thing for the country."

As rumors abound of her own potential presidential run in 2024, Cheney said she "would find it very difficult" to support Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis as the party's candidate.

"I think that Ron DeSantis has lined himself up almost entirely with Donald Trump, and I think that’s very dangerous," she said.

Bush Leaguers despair that we might elect people who will not assist the Democrats in destroying the country.

Proof that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

The fact that the Republican PArty is becoming populist and patriotic, has the elite "ruing class" Republican's panties all in a twist.The silver spoons are popping right out of their country club mouths!

RINOs are old news, dinosaurs destined for Darwin Awards.

The sickness in the Repuiblican party is a go along to get along sickness , and the go along is associated with being bought off by the Dems who fill RINO pockets.

People like the Cheney family have been leeches on the American body politic long enough, we cannot afford them any more because they will not fight the fascist "re-imaging" of America into some weird socialist utopia, an Unconstitutional exercise.

No Liz Cheny, we are purging you, and doing so for the GOOD HEALTH of Republican Democracy. YOU SOLD US OUT! YOU ARE A GONER!

LIZ SHOULD GO HUNTING MORE OFTEN WITH HER FATHER!

How did this idiot ever get elected? Hitler loved his country and did his homework too.

Liz, what is sick is the attitude that as a ‘connected’ person you are entitled to tell others how to think, what to do, and then label them as sick when they don’t agree with you.

Grow some humility and lose the hatred you obviously harbor. If you want to ‘serve’, then go work in a soup kitchen or a food pantry and actually serve. What you are doing now is not service, to anyone but yourself.

I find it delightful. It tells me that this is a very painful few months as her career in politics comes to an end all because of her inner hatred for Trump.
