Late last week, former President Donald Trump sent out a bizarre meme morphing the faces of two of his biggest political nemeses in the Republican Party: former President George W. Bush and Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY). The odd Photoshopped image appeared to be in response to Bush announcing he was headlining a fundraiser for Cheney next month. (Trump is backing the GOP primary opponent of Cheney, who voted to impeach the ex-president for inciting the Jan. 6 insurrection.)

On Sunday morning, the Wyoming congresswoman—one of two Republicans on the Jan. 6 select committee—took a not-so-subtle shot at Trump over the meme, hitting him where it hurts. “I like Republican presidents who win re-election,” Cheney wrote on Twitter alongside a photo of Bush. Since his decisive electoral loss to President Joe Biden, Trump has relentlessly peddled the “Big Lie” that the election was rigged against him.

1. Ugh

Like shit telling puke it smells good.

[calimary]

3. No kidding.

I’m tempted to like her, but I’m always reminded: a Republican is a Republican is a Republican. And a Cheney is a Cheney is a Cheney.

6. Personally, I use more adjectives. /nt

[FoxNewsSucks]

7. And Cheneys are the worst kind of republicon

The non-crazy kind of evil that can successfully walk among normal people, blending in somewhat, while still carrying out their evil.

16. Her political career in trying to normalize her father

Fuck both of them

[StClone]

15. Cheney is a rake which Tee-Man stepped on right to the nads.

2. First illegitimate presidents make Liz all giddy?

[Champp]

4. Bullseye - she got TFG right in his feeble Republican ego

His poor widdle Republican ego just can't handle strong women and accurate insults. Yet another pathetic whiney Republican tantrum coming soon...for certain.

5. So then she didn't like bush Sr?

[Duncan Grant]

8. It's our duty to fan these flames.

The more I can do to get these two sides to destroy each other — the better.

[Bayard]

9. Sounds like she'd have preferred TFG got re-elected

I'm sure she didn't mean it that way.

[StClone]

14. Naw, she was just using Trump's Bullying bs against the Marigold Manchild

She hates him and wouldn't want him as POS again. But does she ever look like her father--eesch!

[Evolve Dammit]

10. She would have been fine with a 45 second term. Bush/Cheney for Prison. They sure should be.

[The Jungle 1]

11. Sure is fun watching repukes fight.

She is pretty good at it.
I bet the McCain family loves it.

12. I don't trust Liz Cheney.

She is on this anti-Trump crusade because she has decided that it will help her political career in the long run. And otherwise she is just as crazy right wing as the other ones. And if she only likes Republican presidents who win reelection why was she such as big fan of George H. W. Bush who lost reelection to Bill Clinton? She is a liar and a hypocrite.

13. I really don't think Cheney wanted Trump to win... she made it clear in many different ways...
