Lifelong Republican Liz Cheney Explains Why She's Endorsing Colin Allred Over Ted Cruz
HuffPost
"You can't trust Ted Cruz," the Wyoming Republican said.
Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) said “You can’t trust Ted Cruz” as she explained why she’s endorsing his opponent in the U.S. Senate race in Texas, Democratic Rep. Colin Allred.
“The choice for the people of Texas is just a very clear one,” Cheney, who officially endorsed Allred earlier this month, said in an interview alongside Allred with Dallas ABC affiliate WFAA last week.
Cheney, who was in Congress from 2017 until 2023, said she hasn’t made any other endorsements for Senate this year. She worked with Allred after he joined Congress in 2019, and said she’s known Cruz for over 20 years.
She said that America needs “serious people in office.”
“I know [Cruz] will say anything if it serves his own political purpose,” Cheney told WFAA.
