    They’re not happy with Cheney per se, they’re happy with b i p a r t i s a n s h i p.

    They’ll do anything to play to the middle, no matter where that middle is. If (when) someone emerges in the Republican Party who is more cutthroat than Trump, they’ll rehabilitate him and talk about how civil it used to be in the Trump years when there was “rule of law” and we “weren’t so divided”.

        Myopic liberals will go with it because you can be a fairly intelligent person and still fail to identify the trajectory after seeing it for 15+ years.

        There are a lot of people with a surface-level understanding of politics.
