Liz Cheney, one of two Republicans on the unconstitutionally assembled January rebuked GOP voters for their support of former President Donald Trump on Sunday.
“We can either be loyal to Donald Trump or we can be loyal to the Constitution, but we cannot be both. And right now, there are far too many Republicans who are trying to enable the former president, embrace the former president, look the other way and hope that the former president goes away, trying to obstruct the activities of this committee,” Cheney argued on CBS’s Face The Nation. “But we won’t be deterred. At the end of the day, the facts matter, and the truth matters.”
The Wisconsin congresswoman and vice-chair of the House Select Committee repeatedly claimed Trump is “dangerous” and vowed to assure he will never return to the White House.
“We are in a situation where people have got to understand the danger of President Trump and the danger he posed that day,” she said. “This is a man who has demonstrated that he is at war with the rule of law. He has demonstrated that he is willing to blow through every guard rail of democracy. And he can never be anywhere near the Oval Office again. He has demonstrated a complete lack of fitness for office.”
