Liz Cheney Denounces 'Depraved' Donald Trump Following Harris Endorsement

During an interview on ABC's "This Week," the former congresswoman also said Trump's policies make it hard to even call him a true conservative.

Liz Cheney described Donald Trump as “depraved” and dangerous while defending her decision to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris during a Sunday interview on ABC’s “This Week.”

Cheney was unequivocal about her choice, as she told “This Week” co-anchor Jonathan Karl that reelecting Trump for president would end up being an “unrecoverable catastrophe” for the country.

“We see it on a daily basis, somebody who was willing to use violence in order to attempt to seize power, to stay in power, someone who represents unrecoverable catastrophe, frankly, in my view,” she said. “And we have to do everything possible to ensure that he’s not reelected.”

Though the retired Republican legislator told Karl she has “never viewed this as a policy election” while defending her political differences with Democratic presidential candidate Harris, Cheney also argued that Trump could barely be characterized as a true conservative and that “Republicans have nominated somebody who is depraved.”

“Somebody who shows us every day that he has tendencies and he’s willing to embrace things that are fundamentally a danger to this nation and to our constitution,” she continued. “So, the choice, in my view, is not a close one.”
