Cheney will not be remembered for her politics, she will be remembered for defending her country.

If the Republican leadership had done what Cheney has done, simply put country first. Trump would be down at his resort spending all his time throwing shit at the wall. Screaming all the day long to no one who would give a shit except the worst of his delusional cult followers.
