I think this selling of pardons is the one that puts trump away. if there's recordings or paperwork backing this up, it seems like a slam dunk.
Did you see DeSantis new laugh video, this guy will go nowhere in the primaries, plus picking a fight with Disney. He's unlikable, unelectable.
I would think now is the time that Liz should jump in. Run a campaign on strictly not being trump or DeSantis.
My hope is she wins nomination, thus permanently eliminating donny from politics. Then, of course, lose the presidency to Biden.

I'm quite certain that she has designs on the Oval Office, but she's also smart enough to keep her head down until her party completely implodes.
Hopefully that will happen soon.

(12,060 posts)Basically Republicans and right-leaning independents who hated Trump.
Liz Cheney would pull a lot of those voters back, making it uncomfortably close.

I actually care so little about that pustulant boil that all I want is for him to go away never to be heard of again.
Irish_Dem
(81,215 posts)and are scraping the bottom of the barrel to find some.
Despite the fact we saw Trump with our own eyes on TV committing crimes.
Or saw pictures of evidence.

(46,155 posts)If she does run, it wont be to win. It would be to wreck Trump for the general.

(51,308 posts)Dick (the undead) is thriving somewhere, and I'll bet money he's got friends in dark, as well as influential, places.
But anything that will wreck the suppurating sore and any possible nomination is fine with me.
That cretin can NEVER be president again.

Leaders around the planet are afraid he could be president again.

(51,308 posts)If the cretin gets anywhere near public office again, he will try to destroy this country.
Hortensis
(58,785 posts)Read about stats supposedly showing he "peaked" in 2016. Just wish they were saying that of those who'd create a monster.
Interesting times.

And he just can't quite achieve it.

(8,178 posts)Liz Cheney Nomination is my worst fear. No matter how extreme her social economic views are, and they are extreme, cringe worthy, those will all be forgotten based on her amazing talent and skill sets as a public speaker.
She, would best Harris is an instant and by a huge margin. This election will really be about Kamala Harris vs ?
She could beat Pence, she could beat tfg, but not Liz Cheney.

(18,611 posts)LIZ wouldn't get 3% in a Primary race.
msfiddlestix
(8,178 posts)She'd run as an independent, toss her hat in just after the primaries. speculating of course.
She would have to have the best polling that would get her even close.
I don't know well impressed with her presentations I feel like the anti-maggat republicans are chomping at the bit to find someone to up-end the GOP shit show. They are not big fans of Harris, Biden's second term would be to much of a nail biter for them.
I hope you're right. all i can do is hope this doesn't happen.
we can do it
(13,024 posts)Mr.Bill
(24,906 posts)She would take enough republican votes from their candidate to guarantee Biden's election.

(18,611 posts)She'd take more votes from Biden by giving GOP'er who hate Trump another option without voting DEM...

(40,686 posts)Our relationship was the David Lynch version of My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
Fortunately for the world, and most especially myself, we broke up before we were married when I jumped out of her moving car and left a lot of my blood and skin on a street in Berkeley California. I still can't even walk or drive by the place without having a PTSD panic attack.
I wouldn't wish or hope that sort of thing on anyone, especially a nation.
At this point it's looking like Donny will remove himself from politics.
Give him enough rope.
Don't magnify Liz Cheney.

Cheney the neocon warmonger HAS NO BASE.
She won't take a SINGLE VOTE from anyone who voted for Trump in 2020.
She won't break 2-3% in a Primary and in a General, running as an Independent, she'd take more votes from Biden.
Let the unemployed neocon warmonger be forgotten.
