"Rational" Republicans Threaten Third-Party if Cheney's Replaced.

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

As is pointed out so many times by Conservatives, we are a Republic, not a pure Democracy.

Congress people are required first and foremost to live up to their congressional oaths, second to act in the best interests of their constituents and the country as their conscience dictates, and only to vote and act as their constituents want when the first two are not violated.

.

Representative Cheney Didn't lose her job as a Republican.
She didn't lose her job because she violated her oath.
She didn't even lose her job because she failed to act in the best interest of her constituents.

She lost her job as Republican House Conference Chair because she wasn't doing her job.

The first thing she said after being fired was that she would do everything in her power to see that Former President Trump never gets elected again ...
Well, that wasn't her fucking job as Republican House Conference Chair ...

.​

Upholding and defending the Constitution IS her job as a congress person - and it WAS her job as Republican House Conference Chair.

She got voted out of that position by a bunch of traitors that should be expelled from congress!!!

She got voted out of that position because her fellow Republicans didn't want her in that position anymore.

That's not treason. It's not anything but the GOP doing what it believes is in its own best interest.

Stop with the hyperbole.

It's not treason. But Trumpsters clearly will tolerate no dissent. So, you know, fuck them.

If anything, they will not tolerate incredibly bad optics. It wasn't what she did that has the GOP establishment spooked, but how she did it. That wouldn't fly in any political party. It's not a "Trumpsters" thing.

No party with any self-respect would tolerate Trump.

That's an opinion.

Their voters certainly didn't like the appearance of siding with Dem bullshit.

The GQP "civil war" lasted about 15 minutes, and Trump won. Now it's up to the lucid members of the party to rip the scab off for the good of the country.

If they form that party, I'll vote for it in support, at least while it's getting started.

15 min. Civil wars, half hour insurrections . Tin foil hat hour. Sounds like someone should check into the loony bin. Plus your a biden supporter, you may be a permanent resident.

Okay!

Yes. You are the queen of hyperbole when it comes to the mostly peaceful protest at the U.S. Capital on January 6.

If you think that you are going to gaslight America into forgetting Jan. 6, you are very, very mistaken.

Jan. 6 is another date which will live in infamy. At least Pearl Harbor wasn't perpetrated by Americans!

Right. That's just it. Trump, and Trumpsters, are far more concerned about loyalty than ideology. I don't even think they have an ideology, outside of "whatever Trump says".

For those who thought they would never care about who was the third most important House Republican, Liz Cheney's expected ouster from her leadership position has inspired 100 former Republican leaders drop a letter tomorrow (Thursday 5/13) saying if their party does not separate itself from the former president, they will form a third party:
The Whigs Collapsed Over Slavery. Could the GOP Over Trump?

‘Rationals’ vs. ‘radicals’: Anti-Trump Republicans threaten third party

"The letter, headlined: 'A Call For American Renewal,' is an exploratory move toward forming a breakaway party, two of its organizers said.

"The group is dismayed by what it says is a modern Republican Party driven by its allegiance to Trump, who continues to falsely claim the 2020 election was stolen from him..."

"A spokesman for Trump, Jason Miller, said: 'These losers left the Republican Party when they voted for Joe Biden.'

"Evan McMullin, a former chief policy director for the House Republican Conference and an independent presidential candidate in 2016, said if the Republican Party does not reject lies and extremism, part of it 'will have no choice but to part ways with it and build something new. We’re excited about that prospect.'"

Imho, if four years of Biden has the same effect on Democrats as Trump has had on Republicans, the US may finally get rid of its two-party political monopoly.

Great let Romney and Cheney form their own party

LOL

And Americans don't like the appearance of an honest Congress Woman being penalized for being honest.

They'll try to downplay it, we'll roll our eyes.

As usual.

Speak up? Did I not make myself clear, or are you just stupid?

The people that are removing her have violated their oaths of office and supported a treasonous ex-President and his seditious lies.

They only care what an ever shrinking minority of the American people think and have been trying to undermine the will of the majority of the American people.

.

The whole world doesn't revolve around your ignorant rantings regarding the former President.
Representative Cheney was having a hard time figuring that one out too ... And she got fired for it ...

No, the whole world doesn't revolve around it, but the vast majority of the world agrees with it, dumbass!!

It doesn't matter if the vast majority of the world agrees with it or not.
That's simply not the job of the Republican House Conference Chair.

Which is why you, the rest of the world, and Representative Cheney don't have that job anymore ...

lol....good riddance....take Mittens, and Sass with you....

More uniparty crying

"Republicans "are spineless cowards

Trump is a spineless coward; however, not all Republicans behave similarly

Liz Cheney takes fiery last stand, warning GOP of Trump in final speech - The Boston Globe

"Delivering the broadside from the House floor Tuesday night, Cheney took a fiery last stand, warning that former President Donald Trump had created a threat that the nation had never seen before: a president who had 'provoked a violent attack' on his own Capitol 'in an effort to steal the election,' and then continued to spread his election lies."

Trump is the stereotype crony-capitalist who cut out the middle man (woman), so why are legitimate conservatives supporting his cowardice?

 

[Richard-H]

As Winston Churchill made his career from being the most outspoken Anti-Nazi in Great Britain, so Liz Cheney is making her career out of being the most outspoken Anti-Trump conservative in the U.S.

I think I hear 'Cheney 2024' just a bit over the horizon!!!

 

[georgephillip]

All traitors in the GOP

Stand up and ID yourselves....

Thanks....


Every single one of these made a fortune by investing in gold, oil, the long bond, and defense stocks on 910...

And the wealthier these 911 traitors got, the deeper America went into debt.

Dick Cheney was not only one of the worst 911 traitors, but he is also the one who tossed out fiscal conservatism by lying about Reagan and debt. If you care about America, you want America strong and solvent, not weakened and obligated by a galactic sized debt. Dick Cheney never cared about America. Dick Cheney only cared about Israel.

America before w- budget surplus and under $6 trio in debt

America since w, Cheney, and traitor Joe - trillion dollar deficits are the norm and we are $30 trillion in debt and counting


Solution - civil war

So, you link has 100 former govt people who signed a letter. Not a single person in power.

Pretty sure the Republican Party will weather this "storm".

 

[Brain357]

We need a new party. Repubs are the party of anger, stupidity, and conspiracy theories. They have no value.

What you want is no opposition party, like the good wibble commie cuck you are.

I want a sane party. One that is actually fiscally responsible. One with policy that works. Repubs are neither.

If you want fiscal responsibility, you can leave the Democrats out. That's the problem. Neither party gives a shit about what we need. We are just the peons to pay the bills.

But one is clearly better. With Clinton and Obama deficits declined. When was the last time that happened with a repub? I honestly can’t think of one...

Everything I've learned about Trump over the last few years leads me to believe that he would enjoy an intraparty war. He'd sit back and watch it with relish just like he did on Jan 6 when the Trump mob attacked the US Capitol.

And as much as it saddens me to say it, I think would also enjoy a REAL civil war in America too.

 

[georgephillip]

And cheney is a good example of that

When biden was declared the winner and trump was forced to leave washington he took with him the shattered hopes and dreams of trump voters

That was the wrong time for entitled assholes like Liz Cheney to gloat and pour salt on their wounds

Biden was declared the winner because he won.
Trump resorted to inciting a riot where he was conspicuous by his absence.
Cheney isn't gloating; she's being realistic and honest.
If Republicans continue down the Big Lie path, they will become the next Lost Cause.
