We wait 20 years to see a Cheney punished for lying & then the Wyoming GOP punishes one for telling the truth.

By a vote of 31-29, "the Wyoming Republican Party will no longer recognize Liz Cheney as a member of the GOP." https://bit.ly/2YNUKrF

. . . how sad is it that we actually applaud a GOP member for telling the truth? Almost as sad as the fact that they punish her for it.

6. Unlikely, MF45 is the only thing she's truthful about.

Somehow, she got left out of plans for the fascist takeover. If she were an insider to it, she'd be all in.

As it is, they're just in the way of her planned rise to power.

They kicked her out of the Wyoming Republican Party for telling the truth.

Are the constituents in Wyoming as vapid as the party leadership?

Wyoming is a very Trumpy state, and TFG's slamming her hard every chance he gets. That doesn't bode well for her chances. Her approval ratings aren't good, either. A lot could happen between now and then, but it doesn't look good for her right now.

Unfortunately, anybody TFG endorses will be way worse than Liz, like MTG/Boebert levels of awful.

14. It's quite ironic. Liz Cheney is one of the few Republicans I respect.

At least she is willing to stand up for the nation.
And the one I thought would be most honorable, Mitt Romney, is just a go along kiss ass for Trump.
Of course you could put all the honorable Republicans in the Federal Government in a Honda Fit, with the back seat down, and filled with a dozen bags of manure.
