After just praising vice president Kamala Harris, former US Representative Liz Cheney has stated that she regrets supporting Donald Trump, as reported by USA Today.
Cheney was questioned about her support for Trump during the 2016 presidential election and during the years that followed while serving in Congress during a Sunday discussion with NBC’s Kristen Welker. Welker referenced a 2016 discussion where Trump said,” I’ll tell you at the time. When questioned about his devotion to a peaceful transfer of power,” I’ll keep you in suspense”.
” Yes, I do”, Cheney admitted. ” For, truly, people after what he did on January 6, to behave as though you can have confidence in him, you know that that that basically is just not reliable”. She condemned the activities of January 6, calling the assault on the Capitol “brutal”, “depraved”, and “fundamentally cruel”.
After being removed as head of the House Republican Conference for her opposition to Donald Trump’s plans to reject the 2020 election results, Cheney has come to be one of his most vocal critics. She was a member of the House Select Committee investigating the rebellion and one of the ten Republicans who voted to remove Trump from office after the Capitol harm.
In the upcoming presidential election, Cheney continues to work with the Democratic candidate to help Harris. She urged citizens of all backgrounds to help the vice president earlier this month while campaigning alongside Harris in crucial state like Ripon and Wisconsin.
Importantly, Cheney’s father, former vice president Dick Cheney, even said he will vote for Harris in November, showing a home break from conventional party lines.
