Mary Trump - What It's Come To

Last night, in conversation with fascist and Russian stooge Tucker Carlson, the Republican candidate for the presidency of the United States said this about Liz Cheney, somebody he considers a political enemy:

Let's put her with a rifle standing there with 9 barrels shooting at her. Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face.

For context, Liz Cheney was the third-highest ranking Republican in the House of Representatives. During Donald’s tenure in the White House, she voted with him over 93% of the time. To the extent that the word has any meaning, she is as conservative as American politicians come.

But, because being a Republican has come to mean working actively against democracy, Cheney broke with her party after January 6th. She was so horrified, not only by the harrowing events of that day, but also by her party’s almost immediate capitulation to the instigator of the insurrection, that she voted in favor of impeaching Donald Trump and then she joined the United States House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol as its co-chair.

I don't agree with her politics, and I absolutely detest her father. But all that aside, if it weren't for Rep. Cheney and a handful of other honorable Republicans in the House, there probably wouldn't have been a House Select Investigation on January 6th. Also there wouldn't have been a 2nd impeachment of Chump.

We have much to thank Liz Cheney for.
