The Hill: "Campaign Cheney fuels speculation about her next move"

LOL.

Well at least that headline is honest -- it's Cheney pushing her many, many friends in the Gaslight Media to talk her up as a possible third-party candidate for president.

The article itself then lies, claiming "speculation is growing." No, your headline had it right: Cheney is pushing for others to speculate.

Speculation is growing about the role former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) will play in the 2024 election as President Biden and former President Trump barrel toward a rematch.

She will play the same role as she did at her high school homecoming dance: Third wallflower on the left.

Cheney has vowed that she'll do whatever it takes to keep Trump from returning to the White House. She has left the door open to running an independent bid and recently launched her political action committee, the Great Task, after Nikki Haley dropped her long-shot primary challenge against Trump.

"The Great Task." All the LOLs.

You can tell how much of a grifter these people are by the grandiose titles they give their grifting-procurement PACs.

At the same time, she has said she won't be a spoiler third-party candidate if it helps Trump -- leaving some Democrats curious, even hopeful, she'll publicly endorse Biden instead.

Wow, can you imagine, a Liz Cheney endorsement? That must be worth... 1/3rd of a Chelsea Clinton endorsement, and it's just as unexpected.

"If you had asked me 20 years ago, whether I thought it was a really good idea for Democrats to team up with a Cheney, I would have told you that you were drinking something," said Democratic strategist Jennifer Holdsworth. "But in this day and age, I think the more democracy-focused folks we have working towards the same goal, the better."

Holdsworth said she would "welcome" a Cheney endorsement despite their policy differences and Cheney's track record on issues such as women's rights, while also acknowledging such a move would complicate the former congresswoman's future political ambitions.

No, it won't complicate her future political ambitions, for the simple reason that she has no political future, period, full stop, end of line, end of program.

Cheney underwent a sudden political evolution in the wake of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack, going from a once-rising GOP star to someone vilified by her party for her opposition to Trump.

Rising... star? Is that how she sees herself?

She was a nepot placeholder, the same as 100 other nepots and placeholders.

[S]he's become one of the main faces of the anti-Trump movement, having sat on a bipartisan panel to investigate Jan. 6 and using her platform to target Trump-aligned candidates, including Arizona's Mark Finchem and Kari Lake, during the November 2022 midterms, while endorsing some Democrats, such as Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.).

So she... endorses people?

She's building quite the Hillary-Clinton-like resume of "participating in committees" and "playing a leadership role in discussion groups," huh?

Since leaving office, she has also released a memoir and doubled down on her criticism of Trump -- the kind of behavior that might signal presidential ambitions.

LOLOLOLOLOL.

She paid someone to ghostwrite a book for her that no one bought and engaged in pointless online trolling.

Obviously, then: She's a ship built entirely of Presidential timber.

Cheney has said as recently as January that she is leaving the door open to a White House run.

"I haven't made a decision about that," she said on "The View" in January.

I have. Now shut the fuck up and embrace your destiny. Make a late-in-life conversion to lesbianism and buy season tickets to the New York Liberty.

...

Still, there's hope among some Republicans that she will ultimately come home.

This article is one absurd lie after another. There is not a single Republican who pines for the return of this toadish hag.
