Liz Cheney primary challenger trips over his own feet trying to get ahead of opposition research

Trump loyalists are determined to chase Rep. Liz Cheney out of the Republican Party for daring to say that President Joe Biden won the 2020 election and that an insurrection to overturn that election is a bad thing. House Republicans have already booted her out of her leadership role, but that may not be enough. Rep. Matt Gaetz—prior to his sex trafficking problems—went to Wyoming to rally Republicans against Cheney, and Donald Trump Jr. has attacked her. And Cheney very predictably faces a primary challenge, which got interesting this week thanks to a Facebook Live and interview offered by one of her primary opponents.

“So, bottom line, it's a story when I was young, two teenagers, girl gets pregnant,” Wyoming state Sen. Anthony Bouchard said on Facebook Live. “You've heard those stories before. She was a little younger than me, so it's like the Romeo and Juliet story.”

Romeo and Juliet, he said, and he was being more serious than he might have sounded.

Bouchard then went into a little more detail with the Casper Star-Tribune, and … it didn’t get better. She was 14, he was 18. They got married when she was 15 and he was 19, divorced three years later, and she died by suicide when she was 20.

1. Totally Clueless

He’s dumb on Shakespeare too. Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy.

5. I only count 5

Mercutio
Tybalt
Paris
Romeo
Juliet

Who am I missing?

Still, the comment is spot-on. R&S is not really a love story and it's not a comedy so it's clearly a tragedy. Besides, it's about 2 underage people having sex because they're "in love." Matt Gaetz would approve.
