'Trump is attacking law enforcement and yet again using language he knows will provoke violence. Only one group of Americans has a chance to diminish this danger,' said Liz_Cheney
Cheney, who has been a major critic of the former president, tweeted on Sunday after Trump said the DOJ and FBI have become "vicious monsters" under the control of “radical” politicians and the news media during a rally near Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, the night before.
"Trump is attacking law enforcement and yet again using language he knows will provoke violence. Only one group of Americans has a chance to diminish this danger — Republicans," Cheney said in a tweet."If my fellow Republicans fail to step up to stop this, they will share the blame for all that follows."
Trump is attacking law enforcement and yet again using language he knows will provoke violence. Only one group of Americans has a chance to diminish this danger— Republicans. If my fellow Republicans fail to step up to stop this, they will share the blame for all that follows.Cheney lost the Republican primary for Wyoming's at-large House seat to Harriet Hageman, who was endorsed by Trump, last month. Cheney hinted at a future presidential run during her concession speech, which took aim at Trump’s rhetoric and his role in the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, noting that Abraham Lincoln lost races before becoming president.
Her vote to impeach Trump over the Capitol riot and involvement in the Jan. 6 House committee has fueled a rift between Cheney and other members of the Republican Party. The Wyoming GOP even voted to disavow her last year, after which Cheney's spokesperson, Jeremy Adler, said in a statement that it is"laughable to suggest Liz is anything but a committed conservative Republican." Cheney was also ousted from her No. 3 leadership post by House Republicans.
