Issue with Cheney is that she is a "woman". She was highest ranking Republican woman in Congress.

...Kind of simple. If Liz were a man named "Fiz" then the Republicans could do what they want
without "controversy". But, Liz is a woman who spoke out about ..."lies"..and that is a no,
no....No Republican speaks out about party lies, especially a "woman."...While it seems kind of
mean and cruel, but that is who the Republican Party is. It is more important to get rid of someone
who tells the truth about Republican lies, then getting rid of the highest ranking woman in the
Republican Party..Is that correct?...And the Republican Party doesn't give a damn about the publicity,
it cares more about getting rid of Liz.

Naw! But the very mention of that idea sends the average Republican into a frenzy.

The Republicans will soon have another woman who is more then willing to push forward the lies, because she's more interested in what's in it for her...

With a voice vote the other Republican(Trump's) women were able to avoid showing their support for their Pimp daddy...
