Former President Donald Trump criticized former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney for endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris, citing her significant defeat in 2022 and her father's controversial leadership during the U.S. invasion of the Middle East. Trump referred to Cheney as a 'low IQ war hawk' on Truth Social, highlighting her loss in Wyoming by a large margin.
Cheney, once a prominent conservative figure in the GOP, pledged to prevent Trump's return to power after the Capitol riot on January 6, 2021. She recently campaigned for Harris in Wisconsin, emphasizing unity against Trump's bid for the presidency.
The campaign event in Ripon, Wisconsin, where a historic landmark symbolizing the formation of the Republican Party stands, saw Cheney endorsing Harris as a conservative, patriot, and defender of the Constitution.
Cheney, known for prioritizing country over party, served on a committee investigating the Capitol riot. Trump's social media posts criticized both Cheney and her father, Dick Cheney, for endorsing Harris, labeling them as 'fools' suffering from 'Trump Derangement Syndrome.'
Cheney warned of the threat posed by Trump to the nation's democratic foundations, asserting that he should never hold power again. She stressed the importance of patriotism over partisanship and criticized Trump for lacking compassion and fitness to lead the country.
