Rep. Liz Cheney Calls Trump A 'Continuing Danger,' Urges Unity Against Him
HuffPost
"His continued attacks on the Constitution and the rule of law is dangerous and we all have an obligation to stand up against that,” she said.
Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), newly ousted from her role as the third-ranking House Republican over her condemnation of Donald Trump, doubled down on her reproof of the former president on Sunday, calling him a “continuing danger” to democracy and urging unity in moving her party beyond him. “He’s causing people to believe that they can’t count on our electoral process to actually convey the will of the people,” she said of his refusal to accept the results of the 2020 election in an interview with “Fox News Sunday.” “We have to be a nation of laws. If you continue to reject, if you work against the rulings of our courts, then you really are at war with the Constitution. And he is a continuing danger to our system.” Cheney was replaced on Friday as the House Republican Conference chair after refusing to support Trump’s continuing claims that his reelection was stolen from him. She was also one of 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump for inciting the Jan. 6 insurrection.
