    As much as I hate her, she’s fighting to stop him, and that is a good thing.

      It’s like if one mugger runs up and hits you in the face and demand your wallet…

      You’d be happy someone ran up and scared off the first mugger, until they pull out a knife and also demand your wallet.

      Your still getting mugged, you just didn’t expect it the second time.

      Hell, you could argue Cheney is worse because she’ll do the same shit just less obvious so less people will care or even notice how bad she is.

        Well right now she’s still fighting off the first mugger. I’m not going to attack her until the first mugger has been dealt with and then only once she pulls her knife on me.

        If your point is to be wary that she may pull a knife, I agree.

        If your point is to fight off the mugger and her at the same time, I disagree.

          You don’t see the danger of the media presenting her as rational despite supporting all the problematic policies trump does?

            i don’t see any problem with anyone presenting her fighting Trump as rational-- which is all that’s being done.

            nobody is claiming that Liz Cheney has suddenly become some hero of the Left, just that, in this case, she’s doing the rational thing in fighting Trump.
