Liz Cheney reveals she is considering third-party presidential bid: 'Whatever it takes'

Former Republican Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney said she is contemplating a third-party presidential run, warning of the dangers that would come from former President Donald Trump serving as president next year for a second term.

Speaking to the Washington Post on Monday while promoting her new book, Oath and Honor: A Memoir and a Warning, Cheney said she would not have thought about a third-party run several years ago but feels the former president’s presidential bid threatens democracy.

Cheney, once a rising star in the Republican Party before becoming one of Trump’s most outspoken GOP critics, said she would make a final decision within the next few months. She was ousted in the Wyoming primary last year by a Trump-backed challenger, now-Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY).

I translate that as, "Gimme money!" She's in it for the "campaign" donations she can get out of stupid people.

Which is always fascinating. I've never contributed money to a political campaign. The idea of millionaires and billionaires wanting middle and lower income people to finance their power grab is just astounding. And yet people do it! They give money to rich people - just freaking give it to them with nothing in return.

It never fails to amaze me.

She has spent waaaayyyy too much time breathing her own methane emissions.
I think the proper term for that is jenkem.

jenkem is an inhalant and hallucinogen created from fermented feces. You use jenkem by putting feces and urine in a jar or a bucket, sealing it with a balloon or lid, and then leaving it out in the sun or heat to ferment.

I wonder, will she tap Kinzinger to be her running mate since he is probably her only constituent?

What does she hope to accomplish with a Presidential run?
She has no hope of winning, she has to know that.
Does she believe she can draw enough votes away from Trump to help the democrats defeat him?
Anyone who would vote for her wasn't going to vote for Trump anyway.
She might get enough campaign funds to pay taxi fare from Union Station to BLM Boulevard on 16th street.

Maybe she thinks if she runs for President it will help sell her hate Trump booklet.
I doubt that also I believe even most Democrats ---as stupid as some of them are ---are too smart to spend $20 bucks on that.
Pretty sure it will sit on Ollie's 99 cent shelf for weeks without selling.

A few rounds ago - I did donate - to a handful of representatives whose campaigns seemed worthy.

NOW, of course, I get bombarded with poltical stuff all the time in my inbox. Most of it gets redirected to junk.

But what I find strange is - does she think that - knowing she can't win - that she is going to draw votes AWAY FROM TRUMP?
Does she not realize by now, she is so loathsome to so many Republicans, they'd vote for anyone before they'd vote for her?

At this point, the only people who would consider voting for her - are squarely on the left.

As I said, she's just panhandling for her "campaign" (winkwink). Just like Jill Stein did a GFM to "recount the 2016 election" (because in Dem World they won't do that chit for free or using taxpayer funding). When Trump was certified and it was all over....she kept that money. Like $7million or something along those lines. She said she was going to "repurpose it"....right into her offshore bank account, no doubt.

Never EVER underestimate the stupidity of political zealots. I have no doubt Grifty Liz will pocket a few mil for her efforts.
