Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney has planted a flag firmly against another Trump run in 2024, and while she may be lonely in that position in the GOP, the numbers seem to back her up. In this latest episode of The Point, CNN’s Chris Cillizza explains why Cheney has taken such a big gamble to fight against Trump.

Do you think Liz Cheney refusing to support Trump in 2024 is a smart move politically? – Chris
He is a cancer on the body politic. Whether or not it was the same move politically it was the right decision. The country needs to move on from Donald Trump.

Good morning from Bangkok 🌞😎🌞
@Red DwarfYes! Wish today is a good day for you

Liz has a pair alright and they are way above the belt! You go, girl!🤘
@Brian Jones She took one for the people instead of serving her own self interests. Biggest pair of 🏀⚾️⚽️ in the party
That pair came from the many she’s sucked. Using her daddy to get higher in the ranks
@Dolores Abdelwahed she’s very divisive
@Μυλωνόγιαννης Λ She had no place in the future

Cheney knows you have to stand up to bullies.
@Billy Murray No. But respect is earned, not given away. IDGAF that he was president. He disrespected so many people that it made my blood boil. So he can rot in Hell.
@jdslyman heard it all before
Her dad the former vp also hates trump

Yeah, only when you have nothing to lose…
Power doesn’t make someone blind ! However, if it changes hand to a stupid person, it gets misused !
Liz Cheney has smart enough not to say, “Trump will learn the next time”, she knew he would never learn no matter how many times he was forgiven.
@Lynn Wilhoite your all children trying to make a point online go make a difference in your community stop blaming others for your own problems
@Toke Joker Cover both stories. They’re equally important.
@Dusan Bulj When Trump was running for office in 2016 he held rallies weekly spreading fear about immigrants/Muslims and the state of our country – which caused violence at his and ONLY his rallies. AFTER winning in 2016, he continued to hold those rallies 1-2 times a month during his ENTIRE presidency (19 during the pandemic) spreading LIES/fear/and telling his followers who to hate (media, democrats, “deep state”, China, and ANYONE who disagreed w/ him). Trump condemned ALL USA institutes ranging from the CIA, FBI, DOJ, Judges, Lawmakers, and even when faced w/ evidence Russia hacked our election – Trump stood on the world stage and agreed w/ Putin that they didn’t…
Trump lost in 2020 – BUT, he spread the LIE that he actually won, that our democracy is rigged, then HE gathered 1000s in DC telling them today’s the day they can change the results – and those 1000s stormed our capitol – 5 dead…
The list of “what Trump did wrong” goes on and on, but the worse thing he did was convince people like yourself that he did nothing wrong – that it’s EVERYONE else – unless they agree with HIM.

@Marianne Mcilwain because they rewatched the video and saw the knife in the 16 yr old’s right hand, drawn back, about ready to plunge into an innocent black child.
Chris Christie is well known nationally as the “bridegate” and “beachgate” guy. He will never win.
@Geneass No other beach would fit him.
@Douglas E. Johnson he needed all the beaches
@Geneass Jersey needs a Christie Beach. Closed to the public.
@Douglas E. Johnson give him a Bayside beach.
@Geneass Closed. Under Construction. Take the Bridge.
So Liz Cheney is the only one that _The Ex_ doesn’t have any dirt on…
Got it…
Dirt is easy to get on Liz.
He doesn’t have dirt on any of them. He has their idiot voters. So they will do whatever he says if they want his endorsement.

@Joseph “147 times”
Did someone roll up with a ma deuce or something?
That Cheney is standing up against T**** is a good thing , she”s still a Republican , it simply makes her the tallest midget in the circus
and Trump is still the ring leader
Midget?Dont!
Liz is a RINO.
Rino lol why because she doesn’t keep her mouth closed and follow the herd
her father approves
In the circle I hang with, we are all Ex-Republicans and are politically active. Presently we are watching the field for candidates that will be running in 2022. Our votes and monetary support will go to any qualified candidate that runs against any other candidate that has enabled or supported donald. There are more than just a few of us.
@Michael Shaw
You certainly heard of the Lincoln Project.
@Michael Shaw January 6th was a peaceful protest. A bunch of unarmed protestors being escorted through the Capitol by the police is not a coup
@Dixie Normis : This is a facetious joke, right??? Although it’s not really funny at all anytime, anywhere. 😳
@Diane Moonstone not really. That’s the reality of the situation. Biden is a fascist trying to prosecute people protesting his illegitimate administration
@Dixie Normis
Wake up 🙈🙈🙈
If you can’t be famous you can always become Infamous !
Thank you Chris…you can breathe now😁 you talk so fast and hand movements match too, I usually have to replay parts 😁😂
I wouldn’t get too comfortable until 2024 is over anything can happen between now and then.
Great Info
👍🙌
Now I can’t see Chris Cristy other than the “Theon Greyjoy” joke Kimmel did on him.
Cheney is a intelligent, informed woman with her own opinion and morals. 👍👌
