Much has been written about Liz Cheney and her motivations for blowing up her congressional career over a seemingly psychotic obsession with Donald Trump. But there are aspects to the analyses that are missing the larger point that Cheney was not motivated by high principles and a quest to save our country. She was motivated by hatred, self-interest, and vengeance.
(Snip)
What Epstein and others who blindly believe that Cheney is motivated by upstanding morality and principles are missing is that Trump Derangement Syndrome, from which she clearly suffers, is a psychological illness. It has led to formerly sane, smart, respectable individuals flying off the handle into irrelevance
Maybe Blanche Lincoln

I get her TDS. Defending one's family SHOULD provoke irrationality. But that doesn't mean we should join her nor does it qualify her for public office. On the contrary, it should make us think twice about whether she is even capable of putting aside her own biases to serve a public constituency.

The people have spoken, she's done, let's hope it stays that way.

One thing most of these “elites” in common is that they are not very likable people.

Not a Lincoln, but definitely an Edsel. Her use by date is way past due.

That she ghosted the author said plenty about her character and the way she treats other people not directly conducive to her interests.

I can respect people with whom I disagree as long as our disagreements hinge on logic and points of view. When a discussion devolves into feelings, that’s when I leave.

What exactly has Liz Cheney accomplished outside of politically appointed positions in the State Department that qualifies her for anything? Okay - she got elected as the lone rep for her state that she has barely lived in and only on the strength of her last name.
Good article but I really find such statements as this: "...blinded by irrational hatred of a great (but flawed) president,.." Always the qualifier about Donald Trump as if no other President has flaws?

+1 Like for this post. This bombing run just kind of bounces the rubble, so to say; but Lizard earned a bit of piling on when she got even more obnoxious as she was being sacked.
Thanks, O.P.

The only thing she has in common with Lincoln is that her Political Career went to the Theatre last week.

TDS is a real psychotic mental disorder. But you being insane doesn't mean that you are some hero "protecting" us.
You're just NUTS and need to be shuffled off to someplace where your insanity won't bother us.
She's a dangerous, unhealthy, unhappy person who is about to be gone from the public sphere.
Good riddance.

As Tyrus pointed out last night on Gutfeld, Lincoln in his younger days was a wrestler. So Lying Liz thinks she's the second coming of Honest Abe? Come to think about it, yeah, I'd like to see her in a bikini wrestling in the mud with some other chick. But beyond that, she's really not any good for anything much else.

Not exactly Lincoln, but she does appear to have an extra hole in her head that is spilling what little grey matter she has left and getting gapped in the last election. Gapped - to place big distance between two points, like losing 66% to 29%.

Lizzy Cheny swung her axe,
To give Trump forty whacks,
A when the counting was all done
Trump was hit with fully none
But she'd given herself forty one

Her speech was very strange but what struck me was she was absolutely alone giving her concession speech. No husband, children or parents. Where were they?

Re #20, her hubby is a government lawyer, never worked in any private practice, 100% government guy. Probably makes him Deep State, too.
