Despite her resounding failure to be reelected, former Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney now thinks she has the chops to stop the Trump train headed to 2024.

The Republican-in-name-only evidently can’t read the room after her 40-point loss in the 2022 GOP primary cost her Wyoming’s congressional seat. But always the leftist media darling for her pure hatred of former President Donald Trump, Cheney has been making the media rounds pushing her memoir that no one asked for and just floated the idea of running against him.

Cheney has been fear-mongering about another Trump term in the White House, warning that it could be the end of democracy and the nation as a whole. She revealed that she is considering running for president next year as a third-party candidate on a bipartisan ticket.

Speaking with Savannah Guthrie on TODAY, Cheney claimed Trump “has told us exactly what he will do. He will not abide by the rulings of the courts. He will certainly appoint people to office whether or not they can be confirmed by the Senate.”

“He has talked about using the military in terms that really are fundamentally un-American. … So it’s a very dangerous moment, and it’s a moment for people to understand that that cannot be the path that we go down as a country,” added the former member of the House committee that investigated the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

Declaring that she would never vote for Trump, Cheney claimed that “a vote for Donald Trump may mean the last election that you ever get to vote in.”

In a talk with USA Today, Cheney said “the situation that we’re in is so grave, and the politics of the moment require independents and Republicans and Democrats coming together in a way that can help form a new coalition, so that may well be a third-party option.”

“I certainly hope to play a role in helping to ensure that the country has … a new, fully conservative party,” she told the outlet on Monday. “And so whether that means restoring the current Republican Party, which … looks like a very difficult if not impossible task, or setting up a new party, I do hope to be involved and engaged in that.”

In similar words, Cheney continued her book and anti-Trump tour with the media, telling The Washington Post on Tuesday that she would do “whatever it takes” to block Trump’s return.

“Several years ago, I would not have contemplated a third-party run,” the daughter of former Republican vice-president Dick Cheney said in the interview. “I happen to think democracy is at risk at home, obviously, as a result of Donald Trump’s continued grip on the Republican party, and I think democracy is at risk internationally as well.”

Cheney’s move along with other third-party candidates could certainly pull votes away from Trump and help her goal of derailing his campaign. But it could also backfire and pull the votes away from President Joe Biden as well, ensuring Trump a victory if he is eventually the GOP nominee.

The responses to Cheney’s comments weren’t supportive of the wanna-be president:

Liz Cheney literally listed off everything Biden is doing and says Trump will do this lol

Liz is completely desperate to try and stay relevant, even though her own constituents voted her out.

Liz Cheney lost Wyoming by 40 as a congress woman, but believes she could play spoiler by running for president against Trump!?

Did someone drop this goofy bitch on her head, as a child?

This woman can’t be shamed or take a hint; she took a historic 60-point shellacking in her primary in her own state. Now, she thinks she will take votes from Trump? I hope she runs; it would take votes from Biden, not Trump.
