Ex-Rep. Liz Cheney has unloaded on former President Donald Trump and
his Republican “enablers” like ex-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy in a
new tell-all memoir.
The former congresswoman from Wyoming decries McCarthy and other
former GOP colleagues as shameless hypocrites who followed Trump
even when they knew he posed a grave danger to American democracy.
Cheney reveals that McCarthy laughably claimed that he only
journeyed to Mar-a-Lago a couple of weeks after the Jan. 6 attack on
the Capitol because Trump needed cheering up.
“Trump’s not eating, so they asked me to come see him,” Cheney
quotes McCarthy as telling her in the forthcoming book “Oath of
Honor,” which goes on sale Dec. 5.
“What? You went to Mar-a-Lago because Trump’s not eating?” she said
about the Jan. 28 meeting, which helped Trump rehabilitate himself
with GOP establishment.
“Yeah, he’s really depressed,” McCarthy said.
Cheney leaves little doubt that she considers McCarthy and other
Trump apologists to be spineless betrayers of their party and the
entire nation.
She calls Trump “the most dangerous man to ever serve in the White
House,” and vows to do whatever she can to prevent him from
regaining power.
Cheney dishes on her fellow GOP lawmakers, including Rep. Jim
Jordan, whom she said disdainfully dismissed the Constitution as
Trump pushed to stay in power after losing the election to President
Joe Biden.
“Winning is the only thing that matters,” Jordan told her, Cheney
writes.
One of the most eye-opening previously unknown anecdotes involve
Rep. Mark Green, R-Tenn., a MAGA loyalist who claims to be one of
Trump’s strongest supporters in Congress.
When Green lined up to sign paperwork objecting to the
constitutional certification of electors from states Biden won, he
sheepishly let it drop that he knew it was all a sham.
“The things we do for the Orange Jesus,” Green said, according to
Cheney.
Cheney famously joined the Democratic-led Jan. 6 committee to help
investigate Trump’s effort to overturn his election loss. She
praises ex-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for reaching across the
partisan aisle to invite her to join the panel.
Cheney said she doesn’t know new House Speaker Mike Johnson, but
said she doesn’t see him as a man of political courage.
“(He) appeared especially susceptible to flattery from Trump and
aspired to being anywhere in Trump’s orbit,” she writes.
