Liz Cheney : are you listening? Here's how you beat them.

[Mike Niendorff]

You will lose your primary, make no mistake about that.

Nothing will change that. You know it, everyone knows it.

The question isn't how to change that.

The question is : WHAT THEN?

And the answer to that is stunningly simple: run as an independent (and as a write-in candidate if you have to).

Make it clear to Trump & Co that you will -- at the very least -- split the vote and deny them their prize.

Moreover, you might even find that there is enough crossover support for you to pull a Murkowski and actually *win* as an independent.

If I were you, though, I'd already be laying plans to do this.

So : are you?

If not, start now.

1. Yes. They have to find a way to break away from him or he will break them

[Irish_Dem]

3. The GOP is breaking Trump away from the party as we speak.

GOP is running J6 committee.

Witnesses were all GOP.

The FBI director who conducted the raid is GOP.

McCarthy (GOP), pulled all his GOP people from the committee and let Liz Cheney (GOP) run it.

None of this would have happened if McConnell (GOP) had not signed off on it.

The GOP is running a big piece of this Trump going down the drain show and the beauty is they can blame it on the Dems.

13. I agree, they want rid of him but don't want to bear the blame.

David Plouffe is a very smart man and he is still not sure that Trump is going to run again. One of his reasons is that Trump is afraid he may not win the primary. Plouffe did admit his opinion is in the minority and the odds are against him.

[Irish_Dem]

15. Exactly. McConnell devised a brilliant plan to dump Trump but can blame it on the Dems.

When we can see clearly it is the GOP handling J6.

The GOP elite has determined that Trump is a major liability.

I don't think anyone knows what Trump will do from day to day. He is highly unpredictable at times.
And there are many moving parts right now, every day brings new scandals.

Trump may be torn. He desperately wants the legal clout of being president, and all the cash he can haul in. But losing is humiliating for him. Of course he can just claim it was rigged if he loses to save face.

Plouffe could be right.

2. Yes. Despite R's making it harder for cross-over voting (change in registration on voting day)

she does have options:

Time to send a messaging Wyoming to the corrupt R system, even while I'm never going to be a Cheney supporter. These issues are bigger than any one candidate.

[FBaggins]

5. Those options closed when she chose to run in the primary

Note the date of the article.

[hlthe2b]

8. Regardless, I think she has her sights on something far bigger & will sit out a couple of years

while garnering national attention, still.

[rubbersole]

14. She eventually will be vindicated.

Then higher office is very possible. tfg has to be completely ruined first. That seems to be happening faster than I thought. Couldn't happen to a bigger pos.

[FBaggins]

4. She can't. That would be against the law

Unsuccessful primary candidates precluded.

An unsuccessful candidate for office at a primary election, whose name is printed on any party ballot, may not seek nomination by petition for the same office at the next general election.

WY Stat § 22-5-302 (2014)

[moonshinegnomie]

6. a write in isnt a nomination by petition

her name cant be on the ballot but she can still run as a write in candidate

[brooklynite]

7. I once worked on a write-in campaign...

Its phenomenally difficult; despite the best intentions of the voters, if they don't see your name on the ballot, they won't vote for you.

[hlthe2b]

10. I am still incredulous that Murkowsky was able to pull it off

though she was (like Cheney) very well known.

[FBaggins]

11. There's "red" and then there's "RED"

Alaska is R+8. Wyoming is R+25

Trump won the state by well over 2-1 (about 2.5-1). There aren't enough anti-Trump voters to beat the republican nominee even if they all voted for her.

[FBaggins]

9. She can't come close to getting enough votes as a write-in

It would be tough to see her throw the race to the democrat even if she were able to get on the ballot... but she can't do anything more than embarrass herself as a write-in.

[Earth-shine]

12. She might run for president. nt

[CTyankee]

16. That's interesting. She might want to be the catalyst of change in the Republican Party...but then I

think of her father and ....

[Earth-shine]

17. She has the potential to capture a lot of the anti-Trump Republican votes,

and perhaps some Independents and Democrats as well.

Whereas she shines as an anti-Trump warrior, she has terrible conservative politics, and voted for most of Trump's policies. We must beware.

[msfiddlestix]

18. I think she might be considering a POtUS run as an Independent 2024.

it would not surprise in the least.

And dare I say it? I can see "centrists" in both parties voting for her in that high office.

I recognized a cetain something, during an opening of the first J6 hearing, which has only gotten stronger with every hearing.

[Heather MC]

19. She Still voted with Trump 93% of the time

Let's not forget she is still A GOPisser.

She is responsible for that horrendous Supreme Court

[czarjak]

20. To be fair, Daddy found W the perfect running mate when ask?
