How To Post Here
(The weakness in the Theory, of course, is that it presumes that DeSantis is either secretly blind, or has no taste. But, still, it fits.)
Have you noticed how much the message of the hearings is pro GOP...except for Trump himself?
As Liz tells it, you know how evil Trump is because almost every GOP opposed him. Pence. Barr. Even Ivanka! Nearly every, as po'd say, effin Republican!
Did you notice that?
Considering current political momentum, these hearings are, for all intents and purposes, a GOP infomercial.
And, considering that DeSantis either ties or beats Trump in straw polls, this is very, very good for Ron DeSantis.
Bottom line: Either Liz Cheney is DeSantis' Fancy Woman...or, she wants to be.

by Donna on June 15, 2022 10:44 am Liz Cheney has one of the most conservative voting records in the Senate. She voted for something like 93% of legislation that was supported by Trump.
It's logical that Liz Cheney would support ANY challenger to Trump. Since DeSsntis seems to be leading the list of challengers, it goes without saying that she would support him. Plenty of other Republican lawmakers would support a challenge to Trump, too, but since their primary concern is getting re-elected, they watch the polls and feign allegiance to Trump.
Liz Cheney, by taking a principled stand against Trump, is knowingly destroying her re-election chances. Last I heard, she was 30 points behind her challenger. She's literally sacrificing her political career for the sake of our country. And for that, and only that, I applaud her.

Very seriously, Donna.
I could almost think of Cheney's actions as one of those historic American "PROFILES IN COURAGE" except that she voted for that second impeachment...
...when there wasn't enough time to investigate the connection between Trump and the Capitol riot.
Her vote might prove to be justified when this investigation has run its course. But, it wasn't in 021, in my opinion.
You may recall that normally I point out how much I admire Cheney for her consistent and principled ideological approach to serving her constituents. She's a conservative GOP in the W Bush tradition. But, she gave in to TDS.
by Donna on June 15, 2022 11:14 am I didagree with your contention that Liz Cheney is deranged. Rather, she feels very strongly that Trump is poisonous to our democracy, or republic if you prefer.
by HatetheSwamp on June 15, 2022 11:17 am
Right. Got it. You and I disagree. Who'd'a thought it!!!!!?
by Donna on June 15, 2022 11:23 am What do you disagree with?
by HatetheSwamp on June 15, 2022 11:33 am
Donna.
Read your own post. I disagree with what you disagree with me about. You said it first. I actually was merely agreeing with you that we disagree.
I think that Cheney is deranged.
by Ponderer on June 15, 2022 12:14 pm I think you're someone who doesn't know what the word "deranged" means.
by HatetheSwamp on June 15, 2022 12:24 pm
de·ranged
adjective
mad; insane.
"a deranged gunman"
po,
Nope. It's okay. I double checked, as you can see.
She's deranged.
by Donna on June 15, 2022 1:01 pm Well again there's that thing I talked about on another thread about being both educated and ignorant.
by HatetheSwamp on June 15, 2022 1:11 pm
Yeah, d@mn! I wish I could be you.
