    No she wasn’t. She was an excellent symbol that even crazy, hard-line conservatives know trump is insane.

    Kamala lost because she did what Democrats always do: ignore progressives and go hard right. If she had played to the god damn left like she should have, Liz Cheney would give that some real depth.

    It still did, but less, due to the lack of going left. Liz didn’t cost anybody shit.

      You know you’re contradicting yourself, right?

      Actively embracing the daughter with identical politics of Dick Cheney IS going hard right.

      It may say “sane Republicans oppose Trump”, but it also says “we are so obsessed with winning over the Right that we’ll endorse people who are against everything we pretend to believe in while ignoring the Left that we’re pretending to represent”

      It didn’t “add depth”, it made obvious their hypocrisy and lack of regard for policy that affects the lives of regular people more than those of themselves and their owner donors.
