Senator Hawley and Senator Cruz are unfit to service because they support The Big Lie

Echo report published in The Hill by Zach Schonfeld

Liz Cheney says Hawley, Cruz ‘made themselves unfit for future office’- they are both wrong minded supporters of The Big Lie. 

In fact, the 2020 election was won by President Joe Biden!

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) on Sunday said it would be “very difficult” for her to support Sens. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) or Ted Cruz (R-Texas) after they objected to Electoral College votes on January 6, 2021. In other words, both men supported The Big Lie!

Cheney told ABC “This Week” co-anchor Jonathan Karl that both Ivy League-educated senators “know better".

“Both of whom know exactly what the role of Congress is in terms of our constitutional obligations with respect to presidential elections, and yet, both of whom took steps that fundamentally threatened the constitutional order and structure in the aftermath of the last election,” she said. “So in my view, they both have made themselves unfit for future office.”

Cheney on Tuesday lost her primary to (right wing nut!Harriet Hageman, a former ally who was backed by the former guy Trump and has supported unfounded claims of election fraud in the 2020, presidential election.

The Wyoming congresswoman has been an unapologetic critic of Trump, voting to impeach him and serving as the vice chairwoman of the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

“It would be very difficult,” Cheney said when asked if she could support Cruz, Hawley and others who have closely tied themselves to Trump.

“I think that a fundamental question for me in terms of whether or not someone is fit to be president is whether they’ve abided by their constitutional obligations in the past,” said Cheney.

Cruz and Hawley are both seen as considering future White House bids, while Cheney is planning to launch a political group to keep Trump allies out of office.
