Dick Cheney was, at one time, the most feared man in America. ” Darth Cheney”, and” The Prince of Darkness”, were only two of the printed names the departed came up with for the original George Bush vice president.

” Dick Cheney Should Be in Jail, No Praised as a Hero by Democrats”, wrote Chip Gibbon in the extreme kept Jacobin.  ,
” He is most remembered for his role in promoting the Iraq War, an illegal war of aggression predicated on falsehoods, as well as pushing the country to the” dark area” after 9/11, which included abuse, detention without trial ( including of US citizens ), warrantless surveillance, and other severe departures from democratic norms of democracy”. Gibbons writes.
Cheney will be remembered for a lot of stuff, but “pushing the country to the “dark side” is not one of them. Despite the hysterical assumption that Cheney ran the nation while George Bush was president, a man sat in the White House had the ultimate state in terms of war and peace.
 , Most late, Cheney endorsed a Democrat for leader. His support for Kamala Harris comes after that of his daughter, Lynn Cheney, a former congressman and representative of the 9/11 Committee.
There it is — DICK CHENEY will be voting for Kamala Harris, as @Liz_Cheney said earlier today at# TribFest24 photograph. twitter.com/Mg0EpGnBZP— Andrew Desiderio ( @AndrewDesiderio ) September 6, 2024
Naturally, this did n’t please Donald Trump.
” He’s the King of Endless, Nonsensical Wars, wasting Lives and Trillions of Dollars, just like Comrade Kamala Harris”, the former president wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social. ” I am the Peace President, and simply I will stop World War II I”!

” Dick Cheney , is an unimportant RINO, along with his daughter, who lost by the largest percentage in the History of Congressional Races”.
The former vice president is one of the most” major rebellions to the Democrats,” according to the Washington Post. That may be correct. It’s unusual for a previous high department official to support a candidate running for president of the opposing party.  ,
Cheney stated that he would support Harris in order to meet his municipal duty, which is to “put nation above partisanship to protect our Constitution.” The notes that appeared to be intended to persuade another conservatives to support a Democratic presidential candidate for the first time, especially those who have held positions of influence.
At a time when some in Trump’s party have expressed personal and public reservations about him but have never used their positions to support his opponent, Cheney’s statement makes him the most well-known Republican to constantly support him. Additionally, it raises the issue of other Republicans who have not yet endorsed Trump or Harris, such as former president George W. Bush, original vice president Mike Pence, former White House chief of staff John Kelly, and Utah senator Mitt Romney, who ran for president in 2012.

As a rule, testimonials sway very some people. This is especially true for establishment Democrats like the Cheneys, the Bush’s, and Romney. Their time is long history. Their effect is essentially nonexistent.
It’s not that they do n’t have anything important to say. It’s that the latest generation of the Republican Party is n’t listening.
In recent weeks, Harris ‘ campaign has been wooing Republican voters, aiming to stop Trump’s criticism of her as being a” communist” and aggressively liberal. While the strategy is at risk, Harris ‘ friends sought to use the former vice president’s support as part of a pattern of Republicans putting policy differences off to unite in support of Trump’s defeat. Some Democrats continue to hold a hatred for Cheney as a choleric vice chairman and outspoken advocate for the Iraq War during Bush’s president.
One endorsement wo n’t change many people’s views of Dick Cheney on the left.
Wow! Dick Cheney, who served as Vice President to George W. Bush, may become voting for Kamala Harris. Always been a fan of Dick Cheney, but this exposes how yesterday’s Republican Party no longer believes in principles of orthodoxy. It’s really a religion of Trump. photograph. twitter.com/2MkIhmAyxf— Keith Boykin ( @keithboykin ) September 6, 2024

On the one hand, Dick Cheney should be on tryout at The Hague.
On the other hand, *even* Dick category Cheney is aware that Trump poses a real threat to American democracy as we know it. This is not a left-right problem. https ://t.co/AJBy1KkhpR

Dick Cheney is the only man alive who is probably more likely than Donald Trump to go to heaven.

The fresh Republican Party has no place for infidelity. The same could be said for Democrats who disprove the Democratic Party. There is no compassion for deviating from the party line in either party because of this new political era.
Is that the path to victory in November? We’ll get out.
