1. We like dichotomies, good v evil, honorable v disreputable, right v wrong...

She breaks that mold. It isn't that most of us will agree with her on almost anything she will promote policy-wise, but at least she is standing tough against the threats to democracy that Trump and his ilk pose.

I have to credit her for that and will chastise anyone who can't at least see that aspect, even while the knee-jerk response from some here is to castigate those who have a single positive thing to say about her.
Quite simply her brand of conservatism is the only real hope for Wyoming to avoid falling to the Trump crazies. Seems like the most unlikely uphill battle, unless WY Dems decide to back her in the primary, which they could do. I doubt it would be enough for her to prevail, but, I can certainly understand why many WY DEMS might try. The rest of that Trump-loving sycophantic crowd is just so horrible.

2. Cult of personality was a term famously used to describe Joseph Stalin

Liz Cheney's got a hard fight ahead. I see no path for success other than Americans kicking a couple dozen Republicans from Congress at election time.
