    No Democrats are going to actually support Liz Cheney.
    Sure, they'll pretend to care about her.

    I think they care about how this was handled. ( very poorly) . She is a die hard conservative......and that flies against the democrat ideology.

    No...he did more than that. He put in writing, HOW the Executive Branch would interpret the law for enforcement purposes. The Executive Branch doesn't decide if a law is "legal" or not. That's the function of the Judicial Branch. But, I've already said that Congress could either complain (which they seldom did) or they could take the mode of law enforcement to the Courts.

    Good of you to admit it. I'm not sure Trump has.

    There are plenty of folks out there that are against the Republican Party. It might be because of Trump and perhaps Pence.

    And they are not improving their situation with their current actions.

    True. The problem is there are so many despicable characters in that flock. I'm not a D or an R but I know for certain that I would have left the Rs in heartbeat over Trump's antics since the election and since Biden's inauguration. Who crashes people's wedding receptions?

    No one ever accused him of having taste or good manners.

    Rep. Liz Cheney removed from House Republican leadership for criticizing Trump's election lies

    https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/house-republicans-vote-liz-cheney-s-future-leadership-rebuking-trump-n1266992?cid=eml_nbn_20210512&user_email=31538fe77b084701975d9091aa0bbf4ef284dc0ddf7d4abb252027c596581efa&$3p=e_sailthru&_branch_match_id=857693951420692326&utm_medium=Email Sailthru

    That tells you everything you need to know about the Current GOP "values' system.

    How can anyone with any semblance of integrity respect them now.?? They did it to themselves by elevating one l person into their "leader"

    They don't even have the decency to work with the current administration in order to deal with all the critical issues in the country. POWER is all that matters to them. They are devolving into an unprincipled group of self centered people. They chose a psychopathic person over principles and their party ........and their country. Because they are afraid of him and how he would destroy their careers etc. So they are doing his dirty work for him.........destroying a felow R position.

    This is about one thing> REVENGE. Trump is gradually extracting his revenge to anyone that spoke out against him. He is too thin skinned to handle critique.....and other opinions.

    So much for freedom of speach and thought. It only seems to apply if one supports dear leader.

    Let me explain. I have voted for many years as a Democrat. When we won, I was pleased. When Republicans kicked our arses, it upset me. I changed to being a Republican back in 1980 so it applies also here. Lets both figure it out. First for my vote was John Kennedy and yes I voted for Johnson and later Carter. Reagan did a very good job so i am pleased to be a republican.

    True and I voted for Trump with no regret. Biden is a very long term liar. Will the press keep pointing out his lies?

    I was against the republican party from 1956 to 1980 but reformed. I looked into the Democrats lies and they sure have many to their credit.

    Why wouldn't they?

    Did Trump's lies bother you? Does it bother you that he has millions of Americans believing a seditious, anti-democratic lie that threatens our way of life?

    Where is the signs of it. Democrats always forget to discuss Biden. Seems they also do not like Biden as some say now and then.

    It's disturbing how what is supposed to be her political party is treating her, and for what reason. Who cares how Democrats treat or support her?

    Can you not see past partisan bullshit for even a moment?

    "Decision could delay the delivery of a second batch until the manufacturer meets its orders for other countries"

    It's been a whirlwind of a day reading these messages because some of the very same posters that justify what was done to Cheney claimed their party is "inclusive and tolerant" and specifically used her and Romney as the proof (all less than a week ago). I was a bit surprised because it was pretty clear they were going to skewer her around that time frame.

    I honestly don't know if they are willfully ignorant or just naively hopeful. Either way, it's not a good optic.

    They just seem to parrot whatever they're told. I know it's been the party line lately that the GQP is tolerant and inclusive.
