Pay attention to her

 

Have to admire former U.S. Congresswoman Liz Cheney. She's sticking to her message. And sadly, she's probably right. We don't want to find out if she is right.


Former Rep. Liz Cheney warns in new book that if Donald Trump is reelected it could spell the 'end of the US Republic'

" 'You say Donald Trump, if he is re-elected, it will be the end of the Republic. What do you mean?' -[ [CBS reporter John] Dickerson asked.

'He's told us what he will do,' Cheney said. 'People who say, 'Well, if he's elected, it's not that dangerous, because we have all of these checks and balances,' don't fully understand the extent to which the Republicans in Congress today have been co-opted.'

'One of the things that we see happening today is sort of a sleepwalking into dictatorship in the United States,' she explained. "
The saddest aspect of this is that the people who are supporting him WANT him to do what he's saying (even though half the time it's impossible to figure out what he's actually saying).  But they want an authoritarian leader, though they don't know what that really means -- and how bad it could be for the USA.

Cheney does know.
