While being interviewed on “This Week” on Sunday, Representative Liz Cheney (R-WY) revealed that her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney, was advising her to run for president in 2024.
Cheney Rips Jim Jordan
“Jim Jordan talking about a possible Trump 2024 run said, ‘There’s no way he is losing. He’s going to win the Republican primary, and he’s going to be president if he decides to run,'” host Jon Karl said. “Now, based on today’s facts, he’s right, isn’t he, about the primary part, at least? I mean, there’s nobody, there’s not even a close second out there, is there?”
“I think Jim’s wrong. It’s not the first time Jim has been wrong, and I’m sure it won’t be the last time, but he is wrong,” Cheney replied. “I think there are millions and millions of Republicans who won’t let that happen again.”

Cheney Talks Potential Presidential Run
“What will it take for you to run for president?” Karl asked, to which Cheney responded, “I am right now focused on my re-election in Wyoming.”
“I understand, of course, you are, and you very much need to be, but what would it take for you to run for president?” Karl asked. “I heard you on the radio in New Hampshire, so it’s not too far out of your mind.”
“I think it’s really important that we as Republicans be in a position where we can present to our voters, to my voters in Wyoming and to our voters across the country, a set of issues and policies that reflect conservative principles, but also hope and opportunity, and inspiration,” Cheney responded.

“Would your father like to see you run?” Karl asked, at which time Cheney said, “Well, yeah, but he’s my dad, so he’s not objective.”
After the interview was over, anchor Martha Raddatz asked Karl, “Jon, is Liz Cheney really considering a run for president in 2024? ”
“It sure sounds that way to me, Martha. I mean, first of all, she was joking a bit about her father, but her father is her most important political adviser, and she told me that he does want her to run,” Karl replied.
“Look, she believes that Donald Trump poses a threat not just to the Republican Party but to the country,” he added. “She needs a platform to be able to make that case. A run for president is such a platform.”

i am a Democrat but I would TOTALLY vote for Liz! Bring back old fashioned Republicans! Not these BROWN NOSING Trump lover Repubs! They make me sick
DELUSIONAL to put it mildly.
Cheney's gonna run? Hmm, can one win the Presidency with only 19 votes?
Lizzy may know many pf the dead and buried??
She's funny….
My mouth fell open when I read that headline. I thought she might just be sold out, but now I’m thinking she needs a long rest at the funny farm.
Lmao…okay have at it Liz .
When pigs fly…or she does…
Wonderful self- overevaluation. Do it and feel the following pain, like your Fathers loss to become President.
Dick Cheney knows Liz cannot win. The ONLY reason for her to run is $$$$$$.
She doesn't have a chance to win at anything now! She has proven that her, her dad and bush are for what the Washington democrats are doing. They are for socialism/globalism/communism/marxism because they just followed what soros, gates, other rich elitist, obama, clintons, Washington democrats and some republicans wanted them to do! They all have shown that they don't care about Americans welfare or safety! We need representatives that really care and want to see America go forward and prosper for all Americans (all races)! We are not a racist country at all! I would like to see the ones that feel that way go to another country and live! They would return knowing they live in the greatest and safest country in the world! President Trump was achieving that and that's what scares them to death! He actually wants to save America and Americans from their evils of socialism/globalism/communism/marxism!! WAKE UP AMERICA, WE MUST SAVE OUR COUNTRY AND OURSELVES!
She’s delusional if she thinks she has a chance.
Good luck with that!
She’s totally delusional if she thinks she has a chance.
Pack your bags BIT_H, your done as well as your WAR CRIMINAL FATHER.
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
And I thought democrats were clueless.
By 2024 nobody will remember Cheney, she is toast even if she cannot believe it herself, nobody wants a woman President that looks and acts like Cheney.
She can run for dog catcher and would probally lose – all the dogs would run away and jump in the sewer before they would let her touch them
This is arrogance of the highest order. 73 million Americans hate her. The Rino faction of the Republican Party have threatened to form a 3rd party. Let them do it so we can identify them all and rid them forever from American history. They will go down in flames worse than Ross Perot. The fact that they are willing to go this route is proof positive that they are the Rinos, as we have long suspected. I would suggest Adam Kinsinger (Illinois 16th Congressional District as her Campaign Manager. He is going to need a job in 2023-2024).
She just got her position torn away and somehow believes that she can run for President? President of what?
She couldn't get elected for anything in Wyoming, let alone Nationally. The arrogance of this fool has no bounds.
Liz Cheney has ZERO chance of winning her own state let alone the Presidency. She is obtuse if she thinks America prefers her and her crony RINOs over Trump. She is going to be humiliated in her own state lol. I will will even travel to Wyoming just to laugh and mock her. She is a warmonger and an idiot deep state crony
☺️😂🤣😉
LMAO…..she is done….put a fork in her!
She could be president — of the Trump Derangement Ass-ociation.
This shows how dumb Liz Cheney is, she actually thinks she has a chance!!!!!!!
They can formalize it all by forming the RINO Party and adapt as their logo that nearly extinct one-horned beast. It all fits.
Ha Ha ,,, inbred , street walking , back door plug using , RINO , , Liz Cheney , running for PRESIDENT is the funniest thing I've heard all week !!! She is going to be HISTORY in the Republican party after the 2022 elections . The only votes she might get will be from RINO Adam Kinzinger , Romney , Murkowski , Sasse and Collins !!!
LOL she couldnt get voted for dog catcher. She is so corrupt just like her dirty old man. She just needs to go away what a worthless human being
I refuse to pass this on to any other social media. Stop giving her any press. Put this on her permanent record to be depersoned and unplatformed by Republicans just like the Marxist Socialist Media/MSM have done to President Trump and all who oppose their puppets, the racketeer influenced corrupt organization known as the "Democratic Party."
Her campaign will have all the gravitas and resonance of that of Bill Deblasio.
By all means run, Liz, I dare you.
I will not pass this on to any other social media because I do not want to give her one single syllable of press. She should have happen to her what happened to Republicans who have been banned from social media. Put it on her permanent record. She will be deplatformed and unpersoned, just like Trump.
What planet is she on………no one wants her to run for Congress , much less the President. The woman is delusional. What the Republicans want is for her to disappear…quickly!!
The dimbulb probably thinks the exposure will enhance her chances for …1) a gig at MSNBC or 2) a Biden cabinet post.
Like all loser candidates, it is a way to eat and travel for free for 18 months. In the end, they are then relegated to the trash heap of history. Proof: What have you heard from Bernie, Pocohantas or Beto lately. As suspected!!! They have had their day in the sun and have now been totally forgotten by everyone except their families.
Cheney is totally out of touch on everything. If she ran, she had to do it as an independent…no chance at all against Trump if she primary him. It would be a disaster for her in terms of money and time wasted.
Let her spend her entire inheritance from Daddy's fortune made from Haliburtin and the Iraq war. She will end up dying a a poor, broken and bitter woman.
Yeah President Trump has threatened to pull us out of all the endless wars, that is a threat to the Cheney’s war industry.
She will NOT get my vote!
The cattle in Wyoming are more intelligent than Liz.
It is clear that Wyomng does not want her. Maybe George Bush would hire her as a maid or a stall mucker out of loyalty and pity.
Wyoming doesn't want her….
Blond bobblehead! Go back to Wyoming and prepare to lick you wounds…you are TOAST< lady, toast!
Hahahahahaha…Oh please run! And please let President Trump run against her. Maybe then she'd finally understand what the People have been trying to get through her fat head. Lies don't work and mean tweets don't matter, results do. And up until the Chinese virus his results were excellent.
She's a rino idiot and her old man is a senile politician who should shut up.
What a waste of money this would be!
I disagree. Let her spend every penny she has on this failed endeavor (it is all inherited anyways). When she is done, she can go to work for the Bush Family, if Texas will accept her.
save your time and money. You have made it clear how you think of us. Why would anyone vote for you? Find another job. Probably not with the public
NO THANK YOU.. She would be a nightmare for the country.. she does not care about the American people or the country.. stinking rino… sucks up the evil democRATS… NOT GOOD FOR THE COUNTRY
