Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsAre you pulling for Liz Cheney to defeat McCarthy and the Trumpsters?
I never thought I would ever pull for a right-wing Republican in anything. But, I confess, I hope she challenges McCarthy for the Minority Leader, rather than run for the White House. (Because I think she would be a very dangerous candidate)
The worst she could do would be to take votes away from the Trumpster candidate and give votes to the Democratic candidate.
However, I pull for her in this battle because she is on the right side.
She is taking the American side.

(65,248 posts)I still don't trust Rs, but some will talk, some will negotiate, and can be reasoned with.
The other crowd is none of those. And, they're far more dangerous.
So yeah, we are on Cheney's side, by default.

I hope she tears the QOP up
