  1. I never liked her dad but we should not judge her based on what he did. She has come a long way on who she has become. I am getting the feeling that she truly cares about the country more than her party!

  2. What an excellent interview! I’m so grateful we have Liz Cheney! She is so absolutely right that Trump must not ever be in the Oval Office again! He is such a dangerous person who doesn’t deserve to be in any political position again.

  3. Her dads rep might keep her from winning but I think she would do a phenomenal job being a first woman president.

  4. What a B.she should swich to the Democrat Party..she certainly doesn't belong on the Republican Party…

  5. Liz is one impressive and courageous Republican who is not afraid to speak the truth on Trump. She’s fighting for her party and country and it’s so honorable. What a shame the rest of the republicans remain cowards.

  6. Liz Cheney 👎👎👎😡 TRUMP 2024 🇺🇸🙏❤

  7. THEY hated her for years because THEY hated her dad. THEY love her now like gubmint cheese.

  8. But they didn't talk about the Biden family corruption . like the latest hunter text message Demanding millions from Chinese energy officials saying his father is setting right next to him.

  9. Liz Cheney is a PAWG.

  10. Liz u r looking good. Rested n ready❤

  11. Here’s to Liz reclaiming her seat come Nov 2024 : The full House of Reps is up for grabs … we can sweep clean the House 1 by 1, State by State !

  12. Vote donate to liz cheney for president

  13. Donald J. Trump America First! 2024
    After Obama caused ISIS to become a terrorist organization, with President Trump's leadership and foreign policies, ISIS was taken out of power.

    After many years of U.S. leaders saying, they would move the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem, only Trump kept his promise and made it happen.

    President Trump removed hundreds of Obama's job killing regulations that jump-started the U.S. economy.

    President Trump got rid of NAFTA, which wasn't fair to the U.S., and created a more fair trade package called the USMCA trade agreement.

    President Trump secured the southern U.S. border, and very few illegals made it across before he left office. The Dems reversed that accomplishment.

    President Trump made the U.S. the #1 oil producer in the world before he left office. Biden reversed that in just a few months after taking office.

    President Trump had the U.S. petroleum reserves topped off before he left office. Biden gave away over half of it to other countries, including China. .

    In Illinois, where I live, fuel prices were at $1.96 a gallon before Trump left office. Within months, Biden had the fuel prices up to $4.00 a gallon.

    President Trump selected three excellent pro-constitutional justices to the U.S. Supreme Court.

    And because of Trump's U.S. Supreme Court selections, he was able to reverse a 50 year travesty of abortion on demand, and killing babies in the womb.

    With President Trump's leadership, more U.S. companies were coming back to the U.S., and the U.S. economy was humming on all cylinders. Anyone that wanted a job could find a job. There were record breaking jobs numbers for every ethnic group in the U.S..

    President Trump gave his wages as POTUS to charity for his entire four year term.

    Those are just some of the accomplishments and deeds from President Donald J. Trump!

  14. She is a true patriotic to our country; I would vote for her if she runs for president.

  15. I loved everything the President of Aspen had to say. What a fantastic mission. 😊

    Edit: Hats off to NBC too 😊

  16. Americans should "Truly" try to Understand how Insane this Interview really is!? I live here in Wyoming and was shocked, sadden and heartbroken when I walked in the local market in Moorcroft Wyoming and saw that Liz had been booted from the Wyoming Republican Party in the Sundance Times. Prior to this I knew Donald Trump was and Trojan Horse & Buffon before he first announced his Candidacy. But to watch the Republican Party in Wyoming and elsewhere disown her in complete disregard to the US Constitution and Free Speech left me with a Sense of Cognitive Dissonance that I still struggle with today. From my perspective, when Humans cannot reach their own conclusions from reason and fact not aligned on party affiliation or pier pressure for what ever reason. You have a Mob! Like on January 6th. However, January 6th will likely not be a wake call for Americans but just a Snooze Botton as the elite intend.
    Instead of a Think Tank in Aspen, how about a think tank on Sid Row in LA or inner City Chicago? Great Interview, but impossible to take very seriously since Liz's Father is a Draft Dodger and a War Criminal, but I try to give her the benefit of the doubt. Being a Pariah ain't easy! I know this from personal experience standing up for the US Constitution! However, as the US Empire Irreversibly Collapses, the Rich get Richer! Great use of the First Amendment here, but always remember, there are more guns in the US than Citizens! "Machine Gun Ready!" ~ Michael Jackson
    Thank you Lester the Propaganda Molester and Liz Cheney!

  17. One the only 5 or so Republicans who honored there oaths

  18. She's lost a lot of weight.
