U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., who was ousted in her primary after being a steadfast and vocal critic of former President Donald Trump’s, called the losses by far-right candidates in the midterm elections a “clear victory for team normal.”
Cheney made the comments Thursday at the Anti-Defamation League’s Never Is Now summit on antisemitism and hate in New York City, where she was asked to assess the results of the election.
“I think that you saw in really important races around the country people coming together to say, ‘We believe in democracy. We believe in standing up for the Constitution and for the republic,’ and a real rejection of the toxicity and the hate and the vitriol and of Donald Trump,” Cheney said.
She stuck to principle, the Constitution, and appealed to the better angels inside the POT, asking that they reject candidates who wrapped themselves in Trump's Big Lie. If the POT ever goes back to being the GOP she has a place there.
