Liz Cheney and father shouldn’t feel alone in this because every other previous Republican president from Lincoln thru Teddy Roosevelt thru Bush 43 are with her in spirit as she attempts to protect the Constitution from Donald Trump and his army of dimwits and rabble.
What do we call the Party of Trump? Do we call it the Party of Spoiled Trust Fund Brats who were never told no as a child?
Liz Cheney looks very tired in this video. She was the only Republican who showed up today to honor the Jan. 6th ceremonies to honor the people who prevented the Insurrection from being a successful coup.
So would we today be a Banana Republic if the Trump’s plan had succeeded?
Probably… to a degree. Because what he basically did was attempt to throw the legislative and judicial branches away in the name of proclaiming himself a strong-armed dictator.
The people who still defend this amaze me. It is a complete abdication of civics, of adult responsibility, and a complete ignorance of our Constitution and democracy.
If you believe in Zero Tax just say so and don’t embarrass yourself any longer standing up for this human junk bond. Do you think he or any of his lawyers made one singular phone call to any of those idiots who were arrested after January 6th and offered them pro bono legal representation?
Let me give a hypothetical. Let’s say Trump stayed in office. Then a lawsuit was filed by Joe Biden and it reached the United States Supreme Court like Gore vs. Bush in 2000.
Let’s say Chief Justice John Roberts and Neil Gorsuch actually sided with the plantiff Joe Biden and by a 5-4 decision ruled in favor of the plantiff, thus declaring Joe Biden’s win as legitimate.
What do you think Donald Trump would do?
You think he would peacefully and with calm accept the Court’s 5-4 decision?
If you think that you’re a complete idiot. He would do exactly what he just tried to do with Mike Pence and Nancy Pelosi.
The Trump rabble would have proceeded to the lawn outside of the Supreme Court, built a gallow, and have started chanting, “Hang John Roberts.”
If you think otherwise–I don’t know what anyone can say to you at this point?
At the end of the day …I firmly believe as a serious student of history even Richard Nixon would be repelled by Donald Trump.
And that’s why as an American…I’m proud and gladful Liz Cheney has the guts to be doing what Mich McConnell, Lindsey Graham, and Kevin McCarthy should be doing.
1960 Richard Nixon’s Concession Speech If California and Illinois had flipped…Nixon would have won the election. He lost both of those states by narrow margins and decided against contesting both of those states because he didn’t want to divide the country. I did a paper on this election as well.
