Liz Cheney v. Donald Trump

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) has launched a TV ad in New Hampshire, warning voters not to support Donald Trump.

Liz Cheney still won’t let go

The story broke this morning in The Hill. According to it, Liz Cheney seeks to advise voters in the 2024 New Hampshire primary not to vote for Trump. The ad features clips from the January 6 Event, and her voice-over narration. She calls Donald Trump “unfit for office” and “a risk America can never take again.”

NBC News reports that she has timed her ad to air tomorrow when Trump will hold an on-air Town Hall from a New Hampshire stage. Liz Cheney has founded a new political action committee that she calls The Great Task. The PAC’s home page uses images of President Abraham Lincoln and quotes the last paragraph of the Gettysburg Address. Thus far the New Hampshire ad, titled “Risk,” does not appear on that web site. But an earlier ad, “Honor,” does – and accuses Arizona candidates Kari Lake and Mark Finchem of refusing to honor elections she insists they lost fair-and-square.

In that video, Cheney said she would gladly vote for a Democrat, something she says she has never done.

Liz Cheney served as ranking member of the so-called House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6 Attacks. Throughout her tenure on that Committee she behaved exactly like her Democratic colleagues. So also did Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill. Neither of them returned to the 118th Congress. Kinzinger left when Democrats drew him into a double-incumbent House district. Cheney lost her primary to current Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-Wyo.).

Hageman protests

Rep. Hageman, hearing of the new ad, accused Liz Cheney of having a “personal vendetta” against Trump. The upcoming “Risk” ad is a sample of what Hageman calls “ineffective TV ads to settle a personal score.”

The Great Task is not a Liz Cheney exploratory committee, nor does she seem to have founded or registered one. She has said only she was “weighing [her] options for the future.”

Those on the “Left” constantly ignore the facts and hate people who challenge them. Just look at what happened in Mericopa County. The only places with voting issues were Republican areas.
