It’s Donald vs. Liz for the soul of the GOP.
Former President Trump resumed his war of words with GOP rebel Rep. Liz Cheney, calling her a “warmongering fool” who has no chance of winning reelection.
“Liz Cheney is polling sooo low in Wyoming, and has sooo little support, even from the Wyoming Republican Party, that she is looking for a way out of her Congressional race,” Trump said. “Based on all polling, there is no way she can win.”
Trump warned Cheney she has no future in the Republican Party as long as he is calling the de facto leader.
“She’ll either be yet another lobbyist or maybe embarrass her family by running for President, in order to save face,” Trump said in an email message issued late Tuesday.

Cheney is the No. 3 Republican leader in the House of Representatives and the only senior GOP leader to vote to impeach Trump.
She did not immediately respond to Trump’s latest salvo.
She has stuck by her scathing criticism of Trump for inciting the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and says the former president should have no role in the party’s future. She is siding with Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in her demands for a bipartisan 9/11-style commission that should focus only on the Capitol riot.
Cheney refused to invite Trump to the Republican congressional retreat in Orlando this week.
Republican House Minority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy has sided with Trump in the squabble, rapping Cheney for her “unproductive” jabs at Trump.
Trump also accused Liz Cheney of being a neo-conservative in the mold of her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney who was an architect of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
“This warmongering fool wants to stay in the Middle East and Afghanistan for another 19 years, but doesn’t consider the big picture,” Trump said.

She (Liz Cheney) is siding with Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in her demands for a bipartisan 9/11-style commission that should focus only on the Capitol riot.
This tell us that Liz Cheney is a dishonorable, dishonest, unethical, immoral Democrat implant.
The RINO (Republicans In Name Only) and DIRT (Democrats In Republican Trousers) need to be removed from the Republican Party.
Sen. Lisa Murkowski, Sen. Mitt Romney and Gov. Larry Hogan are but Disgraceful Democrat Party representatives and need to be removed from the Republican Congress.
The Jan 6th incident was a peaceful protest. One person was murdered by a capital police person (still not revealed) who fired into an unarmed group of protestors. President Trump was the only President in my lifetime (81 years) that actually worked hard and improved lives in the USA. He did what he could for the United States and did not give our resources away to buy “friends”.
USAF Vietnam vet.
Id rather a foul mouth, like trump, WHO PUTS US AMERICANS FIRST, than a cowardly traitor like Liz, ANY DAY of the week.
He is a great administrator, who respects the Constitution.
You forgot Collins and Sasse in your list.
I honestly wonder, IF WE MADE a proper list of rino senators in the GOP, how many of the 50, that list would hold?
Not a word about the criminal in the White House, Not a word about his criminal son. Not a word about the NY Gov who murdered thousands.
Not a word about an election that was stolen from the American people, yet this worthless pile of dog excrement like all Liberals is obsessed with Pres Trump and his Conservative supporters.
There is a cancer that is pervasive in the GOP that needs to be cut out.
VERY WELL SAID, Patriot! Thank You!
Unfortunately, its on the VOTERS OF THE STATES these rinos are from, to wake the hell up, and replace them…
Its called don;t rock the establishment boat, or the establishment goes overboard, with Faux Conservatives Like weak links in the American chain Cheny and actual radical liberals holding hands all the way to the bottom. Cheny seeks to pull our chains while chained to the very establishment Democrats who are pulling her all the way down. Not even Daddy and his pet petroleum friends can grease her way out of this one.
Liz Cheney, Move to New York with the Bushes. You can live next to the Clintons and John Climate Change Kerry in the Hamptons . You will fit right in with these elitists. Get a second home on Martha’s Vineyard next to Barack and the Kennedys. Liz, how do you spell phony Conservative???
How do you know she already doesn’t have a mansion (for holidays) out in that area??
These people are always on a holiday.
If she drove off a bridge with Ted Kennedy behind the wheel does she think he would risk his own neck to save her? Establishment people only look after themselves and Liz is already up to her neck in swamp water.
PITY she doesn’t go swimming in an actual swamp.. Maybe we’d luck out and some of the local wildlife would have lunch…
There wouldn’t be a “civil war” in the GOP if the establishment would quit supporting Cheney. We don’t believe her, we don’t want her and we don’t need her. If those who support her would have had the gumption to fight the stolen election when they had the chance we wouldn’t be watching the slow suicide of our country.
Both establishments are supporting Cheney. Probably some anti-establishments as well.
L. Cheney’s bouffant is an immediate giveaway on her diminished mental acuity. I recall, from years ago while traveling for the Dept. of Energy, the annual competition, during August, at the Oak Ridge, TN., Shoney’s (restaurant) for the “most impressive bouffant”. Amazing sights at 0600. Her bouffant and facial expressions qualified her to be in the non-competitive, shovel-ready (thank you, Obama) category. In more straightforward terms, even understood here in northern CA, she just can’t compete.
