Liz Cheney, a Wyoming Republican. . . endorsed Democrat Colin Allred in his race to beat Republican U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz.
Liz Cheney endorsed Harris earlier this week at Duke University. She has been one of Donald Trump's chief critics, calling the former Republican unfit for office since the attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
Since losing her House seat, Liz Cheney has worked to beat back election denialism in the Republican Party, in some instances supporting Democrats.
One of the most important things we need to do as a country as we begin to rebuild our politics is we need to elect serious people, Liz Cheney said. Here in Texas, you guys do have a tremendous, serious candidate running for U.S. Senate.
The audience erupted in applause cutting Liz Cheney off.
Its not Ted Cruz," she said.

(8,338 posts)1. This surprised me more than
her endorsement of Harris. I hope it gives Allred the boost he needs to win.

because that's in Americas best interest.
OR, that's how much of an absolute ass Fat Wolverine is, that Liz Cheney would prefer losing GOP Senate control,. JUST TO SEE HIM UNEMPLOYED.

of losing it.

Volaris
(10,547 posts)8. Yeah, but everyones been assuming were going to lose it,
