Donald J Trump may be the most vilified man in modern American history. Before, during, and after he served as America’s 45th president, he was the target of ridicule, hatred, smear campaigns, and a public tsunami of vitriol. He was persecuted by a legal/political machine that, if it had succeeded in putting Trump in jail for invented crimes, would have made Vladimir Putin green with envy.
And let us not forget the two attempts on Trump’s life, by two mad leftists who were clearly inspired by the thick verbal garbage spewed by the Democrat party and its affiliates.
There are many people in America today who should be happy they only have egg on their faces and not Trump’s blood on their hands. They should also thank their gods—if they have any—that Donald Trump, when he takes office as our 47th president, will not be the dictator, the tyrant, and the Nazi they have all claimed him to be.
If he were, he would have them rounded up and executed before dinner time on his first day in office.
But Donald Trump is no dictator. He is no tyrant, no Nazi. He is a man of dignity, patriotism, and a God-given passion to sacrifice himself for the country he loves.
These are qualities unknown to the modern Left. All they have is their morally corrupt hatred for anyone not on their team.
The qualities that characterize Trump are also unknown to the neocons in the Republican party. These are the warmongers who gave us 20 years of war in Afghanistan and who have been trying to get the U.S. deeply and actively involved in Ukraine.
The neocons worked tirelessly hand in hand with the Biden administration to destroy Trump after his first term in office.
Few people embody the nasty neocon cabal better than Elizabeth Lynne “Liz” Cheney, who served three terms in Congress for Wyoming. After working closely with the Trump administration for three years during his first term, in the summer of 2020, Liz Cheney suddenly changed her tune and began attacking President Trump. Her reason was Trump’s desire to pull America out of the hopeless, two-decade-long bellicose quagmire in Afghanistan.
Yes, Cheney was going after Trump’s throat long before the events on Capitol Hill on January 6th, 2021. Those events, which she and her fellow hate-spewing liars spun into an attempted coup against the federal government, were only the next stepping stone for Cheney on her anti-Trump crusade.
It has been very clear for a year now that the January 6th committee that Liz Cheney co-chaired was nothing but a political hit job disguised as some kind of ‘constitutional’ effort at ‘preserving democracy.’ The aim was not even close to discovering the ‘truth’ about the January 6th events.
The target aimed for was on Donald Trump’s back.
Cheney fired off a report that was long on rhetoric and short on substance, and she did it under the astounding belief that she could hide the truth about her committee’s work from the American people. But then the Republicans won the House majority in 2022 and seized control over all the January 6th material that Cheney and her committee had not managed to destroy.
The truth came out, and Liz Cheney’s self-anointed gloria of constitutional righteousness cracked like it was made of glass.
Ironically, the 2022 election that punctuated the January 6th committee was also the election that Liz Cheney lost by a 2:1 margin. In the Republican Congressional primary in Wyoming that year, solid conservative Harriet Hageman wiped the floor with Cheney and sent her packing.
But Cheney was not done. She took her anti-Trump crusade to new heights—or dungeons. Last summer, she started making inroads with Democrats to see if she could work with them to defeat Trump in this year’s election. She went on the campaign trail with Kamala Harris, thus supporting all the policies that she herself heavily criticized when she was still a constitutional conservative Republican Congresswoman.
Sources in Washington D.C. tell me she was hoping to become Kamala Harris’s attorney general. Regardless of how much truth there is to this, it would have been a formidable position from which Cheney could launch a tyrannical campaign of lawfare against her political adversaries.
Building ever closer ties to the Democrat party, Cheney continued to ridicule and spew hatred over Trump on the campaign trail. She and her dad, former Vice President Dick Cheney, portrayed Trump as the most dangerous man in America’s history. Liz Cheney gladly participated in the smear campaign to brand Trump a Nazi.
One of her absolute low points came when she stayed silent after an assassin’s bullet had missed Trump’s head by fractions of an inch. This purported protector of democracy had nothing to say when someone tried to end a democratic process by killing a presidential candidate while he was speaking to voters.
Overall, Liz Cheney, whom I once knew as a curious, intelligent, and in all good ways ambitious politician, has deteriorated into a spineless opportunist. As such, she embodies the warmongering neocons who have dominated the Republican party since at least Ronald Reagan was in office. But her unabashed pirouettes as a moral turncoat elevate her over all the other neocons. While they have chosen to disappear from the public scene, Cheney has tried desperately to stay in the limelight.
She is still trying. Behold her sheepish attempt at mending fences with all those she has laughed at in the last couple of years:
No, Liz. There will be no kumbaya around the campfire for you. You made your bed the minute you pulled out the political dagger and proverbially went after President Trump’s back (and that was before your silence let an assassin’s bullet pass through the news cycle).
You make yourself comfortable where you are now: on the wrong side of history.
You chose to be a neocon. You and your warmongering brethren decided to abandon Trump because he wanted to end a war. You wanted to keep him out of office because he does not want Americans to die on the world’s battlefields for the profits of your war industry.
On November 5th, America won. You and your fellow warmongers lost.
And please, for once, leave our president alone. Our kids need his American future—not your endless wars.
