She still voted with Trump and the RepubliKKKlan party 99% of the time. Personal squabbles with Trump don’t erase your legacy of evil.

It’s fine to enjoy the fact that Liz Cheney and some other Republicans are excoriating Donald Trump, but no one should ever forget that Liz Cheney personally and repeatedly pushed disinformation about abortion, she supported Roe v. Wade being overturned, she is in favor of voter suppression, and she still has not made any prolonged substantive progress for marriage equality

We can and should be happy whenever the Republican Party decides to bury their hatchets in Donald Trump’s back, but their infighting should not ever be mistaken for actual progress.
Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis are the natural predictable outcomes of the extreme conservatism that Republicans have espoused for the last few decades. Arguably, there is no Trump without Bush and Cheney.
Republicans do not get to distance themselves from their Frankenstein monstrosity now. Liz Cheney and the GOP own Trump. He is theirs, and they are his.
Unless your goal is to shift the Overton window further rightward, the Cheney family is NOT who anyone should be hoisting up as “good” Republicans. Dick Cheney helped lie America into a 20 year long war-for-oil, and Liz Cheney is against marriage equality and supports voter suppression. Those facts matter. They aren’t trivial.
No one is suggesting that we support Trump or DeSantis, but elevating Liz Cheney to near hero status is another DNC mistake that will materially harm people in the future, should she ever return to politics. For every Liz Cheney I’m sure there are two progressives who are more deserving of lionization than Liz Cheney. Lionize someone more deserving, someone who isn’t against abortion. Someone who doesn’t believe that torture and voter suppression are good things. But the Democratic Party loves kicking left, while kissing right.
And remember, conservatives don’t like her anyway, so it’s not like hoisting her up is ever going to change their minds.
PLEASE do not fall for the okie doke - there are not any “good” Republicans. If they were good people, they wouldn’t be Republicans. We can appreciate whenever some of their goals momentarily align with progress, but they are not “allies” and they are definitely NOT good people deserving of any praise.
