We reported on Friday that Rep. Liz Cheney (RINO-WY) was in deep trouble in Wyoming, with the new Club for Growth survey indicating that she was 30 points behind her Trump-endorsed challenger, Harriet Hageman. I think it’s fair to say that if Hageman beats Cheney in the primary, she’s the new member of Congress from Wyoming, since there’s no real Democratic hope there. Some 70 percent of people registered in Wyoming are Republicans, and more of them voted for President Donald Trump in 2020 than voted for Cheney.
If those poll numbers weren’t enough, Trump intends to close the door on Cheney completely: he held a rally in Casper, Wyoming, in support of Hageman. He had a huge crowd out.
Trump leveled Cheney not only for voting against him, but for selling out America to the left, going all-in with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA).
“Wyoming thought you were electing a conservative warrior, but instead, you got a lapdog for [House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi,” Mr. Trump told the crowd Saturday.
“Liz Cheney hates the voters of Wyoming,” he said. “Wyoming deserves a congresswoman who stands up for you and your allies, not one who spends all of her time putting you down after going after your president in the most vicious way possible.”
