Liz Cheney wants to act like she’s so altruistic and such a hero, but the fact of the matter is that if she really gave a fuck she would leave the Republican Party. Anything other than that is bullshit lip service. And that’s not to mention all the damage her father did, but I guess I can’t fault her for who her father is.
It's disgusting people fall for her bullshit, she is a awful human who paved the way for Trump extremists and now she is trying to act like she had no part in it. She helped all this extremist shit along the way until it got too real for her and now wants to act like she fought the good fight the whole time. She's a coward and pathetic excuse for a human
And go where? She's still an extremist, she still wants an extremist party just not quite as much as they are now.
Work a real job for once in her fucking life? Her entire career has been either government jobs her dad got her or sitting on thinktanks. She has a law degree, go be a lawyer. Defend some drunk driver or write up a will or help someone buy a house. Plenty of shit she could be doing.
Halliburton kids just don’t want to work these days.
Lolwut This is the obscene level of grandstanding I'd expected from a communist on twitter. She's a highly relevant conservative representative, and she's not gonna give up power for her values.
You deserve representation like her.
What aaaaaa no why 😭
Because when someone said "If she had integrity she'd leave the party" you accused them of being a hysterical Twitter communist.
Well yeah. Politics is about power. It would never be a good move to let integrity get in the way of power. Think about it from her position this is likely the greatest opportunity available to her, and hermaking these moralist conservative statements may position her to the left of fascism or it may just help her cope with being one of the bad ones.
... No one deserves representation like her.
