Cheney wasn’t ousted from her leadership position because she dared to publicly disagree with Trump; she was ousted because she kept bringing up a subject that most congressional Republicans want to see disappear. The more the election is brought up, the more vocal Trump becomes about it, and the more impossible it becomes for the GOP to hold on to its little balancing act.
But the problem here isn’t Cheney. It’s Trump. Should she have focused so much of her attention on a public feud with Trump? Probably not. But she recognized something that most Republicans don’t seem to understand: that they can’t continue to pretend Trump’s election delusions are a thing of the past that will naturally fizzle out. Clearly, that is not the case.

Still pissing your pants about him
Biden is president. Behold the retard you voted for and own the damage
He thinks you stolen election adherents are half-brains.
Every banana republic needs its lemmings...
Second, anybody that isn’t for election integrity and providing means for EVERY legal voter to be able to cast a ballot is full of shit
The idea that some have that requiring an ID to vote is suppressive is full of shit ... I was reminded of that on the last flight I took and how many times I had to present my ID
As with anything, show me definitive proof that there was something amiss in the election ... strong accusations without proof is sour grapes
As I’ve said endlessly, we all should have a vested interest in conducting elections where the integrity of the elections can’t be questioned
Tequila thinks I'm right. Again.
If you can’t bring proof then it’s sound and fury ... that’s probably where you think I agree with you
What you aren’t accounting for is the fact that if irregularities are present, it makes sense to investigate objectively. And let’s be clear, there were numerous reports of precincts, districts, etc where vote totals were irregular ... so I got no problem with people investigating
Biggest takeaway from the 2020 election is that we need to actively make moves to ensure that election integrity is paramount.
From what I’ve read from you here and there, I don’t get the sense that you feel there are issues with the status quo. So in that sense, you are not accurate AT ALL I’m saying that I agree with you.
Hence, get my name out of your fucking mouth because you very clearly have no clue what I am for and not ... and most importantly saying that I agree with you when in fact at best I agree with limited parts
I'll wait for the movie.
Check my bags
Go through security
Rent a car
Drive legally
Purchase alcohol
Shop at Costco
COVID vaccination
........
So you can spin it anyway you want about Constitutional Rights ... but it’s extremely disingenuous as NOBODY is advocating taking away rights from anybody
The only thing that is being highlighted through requiring identification as part of the voting process is to increase security/integrity like we do in so many other day to day aspects of life
The % of legal voters that do not have legal identification I would expect to be a very small number ... and for those saying that an ID card is too costly I would be all for making a base level ID card that satisfies voting requirements to be FREE to eliminate that obstacle
