The best thing she has working for her is the respect she’s earned, however grudging it may be, for having had the stones to cross Trump when so many of her weakling colleagues didn’t dare. Refusing to apologize is part of that.
And really: Liz Cheney is supposed to say sorry to Matt Gaetz for offending his cult leader after the cult was brainwashed into attacking Congress and ended up murdering a cop? What?
We’re left to wonder: What would this vote have looked like if it hadn’t been secret ballot? Alternately, what would the impeachment vote have looked like if it *had* been? Maybe that’s one way to think of tonight’s result, as a sort of make-up call for the impeachment fiasco. A lot of House Republicans doubtless would have voted to boot Trump if they hadn’t feared a primary for doing so. Tonight they had a chance to register their true feelings via secret ballot by backing Cheney. And here we are.
