Dumping and Trumping

LIZ CHENEY is an absolutely ideal conservative Republican. Or, so it seems from the other side of the isle. Obviously, she has a good pedigree, the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney. Conservative to the core, with all the right positions on all the right issues, and among the most consistent supporters of Trump with her voting record in Congress, something like ninety seven percent Trump. And yet, here she is, esssentially alienated and ostricized from the Republican party, having two days ago lost by a very wide maring the Republican primary for her seat in Congress. The lady wo beat her is almost certain to defeat the Democrat opponent, another lady, this fall, in what is among the nation's and the state's (Colorado) most conserative congressional districts. And all because LIz Cheney had the guts, and the integrity, and the morality to call a spade a spade, to call Trump's big lie a lie, which she did from the "git go". Liz Cheney, despite her conservatism, has shown a great deal of courage and integrity. The lady, Hariet Hageman an outspoken far right wing lawyer and unconditional Trump supporter who defeated her is a big Trumper, and a vociferous proponent of the big lie of the stolen election sort. Eveyone, including Liz Cheney, knew that this was coming. Trump had endoresed Hageman weeks ago. Let that sink in, as they say. In order to run for election as a Republican, or to even be accepted in the Republican party, it is absolutely necessary, one simply must; accept and preach the big Trump lie, that the election was stolen from Trump. The Republican party is still the party of Trump, as evidenced by the fact that Trump's candidates are winning a lot of primaries against non-Trump candidates, and the Republican party is now completely founded upon a brazen lie. In order to be a member in good standing in the G.O.P. (republican party) you must swallow the lies of Trump, hook, line, and, as they say, sinker. How incredible, that one of America's two major political parties has come to this, has reached this incredibly low low. Maybe Trump and Cheney will both run for president in the 2024 Republican primaries. That would be high entertainment indeed. Surely we are witnessing the destruction and dissolution of the Republican party.
