Republican former Rep. Liz Cheney is voting for Vice President Kamala Harris, she said during remarks at Duke University, according to audio obtained by CNN.
Cheney's policy positions and voting record put her away out to the right, but at least she seems to have principles and a back bone, unlike the vast majority of Republican politicians.
Cheney is a fascinating example of how you can support every conservative policy and still be considered a RINO for suggesting that Trump shouldn't be in charge. She's proof that you can't be a Republican today without kissing the ring.
You're exactly right. She's not a moderate, she's hard right. Staunch Republican in every way except support for a criminal. But because of that, she's not really a Republican to them. Crazy.
She doesn't have principles, she just doesn't like Trump. She's a conservative, so her only priority is herself. Trump is bad for Liz Cheney. Supporting Harris is good for Liz Cheney.
I think what they're saying is that Cheney is the dying breed of old school, self-serving Republican while the modern day ones are the crazy, theocratic-dictatorship doomsday cult style.
"Because of the danger that Donald Trump poses, not only am I not voting for Donald Trump, but I will be voting for Kamala Harris,” Cheney said in a video of remarks posted to X. The university separately provided a clip of Cheney’s remarks to NBC News.
The former congresswoman said in her remarks that it is “crucially important” for people to understand that people do not have “the luxury of writing in candidates’ names, particularly in swing states.”
