Liz Cheney Won’t Rule Out A Future Presidential Run

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), who lost her primary to an America First candidate in one of the most devastating defeats for an incumbent candidate in history, declared on Sunday that there is a possibility she could run for president.

Cheney made the comments during an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union” with anchor Jake Tapper.

After the CNN host asked her whether she would rule out a presidential run, the RINO congresswoman declared: “No, I’m not.”

In her last few years in Congress, Cheney repeatedly sided with Democrats against her own voter base — even going so far as to vote to impeach former President Donald Trump and to join the highly partisan January 6 Select Committee. She was later censured by the Wyoming GOP for her actions.

It is unclear how she plans to court voters, considering her devastating loss in the GOP primary to an America First candidate, Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY). Cheney was so desperate in her reelection campaign that she even sent a direct mailer to Democrat voters, begging them to switch party affiliations to vote for her in the primary.

However, her attempts to court both Democrats and Republicans failed — as Cheney ultimately lost her primary 66% to 28%.

Her hatred for Trump continued after she was removed from Congress, prompting Tapper to ask Cheney about whether she would vote for him or President Joe Biden in 2024.

“We’re going to see what happens. We’re going to see how things unfold,” Cheney responded.

She also referred to Trump as a “threat,” while adding that she would “imagine that there will be a number of other candidates in the race.”

Cheney then praised Biden, claiming that he is more effective on the international stage than his predecessor — while also admitting that Biden’s disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal was “probably the biggest mistake that we made post-9/11.”

She went on to claim that she “definitely” plans to spend the next year helping to elect “serious” and “sane” congressional candidates in both parties.

“We have got to elect people who believe in the Constitution and who take their responsibility seriously to Congress,” Cheney said.
