Consider the former president’s behavior, the demagoguery, the endless lying, the befriending of dictators, the public humiliation of generals, the reckless mishandling of classified information, the child separation policy, the retaliation against whistle blowers, downplaying a deadly virus because he feared that it would impact his chances for reelection, coercing a foreign ally to investigate a political rival, pardoning convicted felons because they were his associates, the refusal to honor subpoenas, the instigation of the January 6 attack, and so much more.
Then consider the political courage of Liz Cheney, a staunch conservative who, while her party remained faithful to their once and future leader, stood up and publicly said enough is enough, we can’t have a person like that running the country again, and here are the reasons why.
Finally, consider that a majority of registered GOP voters oppose Cheney and her dedication to the rule of law while throwing their full, enthusiastic support behind the former guy despite all of his moral, ethical, and legal transgressions. The contrast shows how deep into the sewers Donald Trump has dragged the Republican Party.
