Liz Cheney's Ahab-like obsession with Trump

 It's existential at this point.  Does she do anything else with her time?  It's like her sole mission in life now is to STOP TRUMP.


When stupid things are said always reach for the most hyperbolic explanations first.  It makes for good political theater.  Technically Trump said nothing about Liz Cheney facing a firing squad for treason.  He was talking about her being a war hawk, an armchair warrior who would not hesitate to put our boys into harm's way.  She's out of office now anyway.  The best thing that could happen to Trump right now is a good case of laryngitis.   Her rhetoric is no better saying this is how dictators destroy free nations.  There could be any number of nutjobs out there right now who could take her words quite literally.  Maybe that's what some on the Left want.  She could've just called him a dumbass and left it at that.  Incidentally in the eyes of the Left when did the Cheneys become less than evil?  Dick Cheney's Halliburton and missing WMD days is more like an original Batman episode, dated but watchable but now the Left has moved on.


We're in the home stretch.  If Trump loses Liz Cheney will have accomplished her mission and hopefully find another purpose in life.  If he wins it will be another four more long and agonizing years for her and the Left.  Pop a Prozac.

  1. Has Diddy endorsed anyone yet? I'm guessing anyone who can get him out of jail.

  2. Maybe a WWF cage cage match - Tyrannical Trump vs Lethal Liz - with timeouts for rallies?

  3. Saw Trump and RFK Jr together campaigning yesterday. Aside from looking like they had the same tanning booth, Trump said Lil Bobby would have a 'huge' role in his administration healthcare. Bobby grinned. Does CDC have a brain worm division? What ever happened to dignity Z-Man? As you know it is normal in cats and not that hard.

  4. Some analysts say the neck and neck polling isn't really that close. The momentum has been with Trump they say. He went on Rogan. Meanwhile Kamala's media blitz hasn't gone that well. There are other things besides polls dignity notwithstanding.

  5. Tighten your Yonkers seat belt - Last Trump administration -
    "The economy lost 2.7 million jobs. The unemployment rate increased by 1.7 percentage points to 6.4%.
    Paychecks grew faster than inflation. Average weekly earnings for all workers were up 8.4% after inflation.
    After-tax corporate profits went up, and the stock market set new records. The S&P 500 index rose 67.8%.
    The international trade deficit Trump promised to reduce went up. The U.S. trade deficit in goods and services in 2020 was the highest since 2008 and increased 36.3% from 2016.
    The number of people lacking health insurance rose by 3 million.
    The federal debt held by the public went up, from $14.4 trillion to $21.6 trillion.
    Home prices rose 27.5%, and the homeownership rate increased 2.1 percentage points to 65.8%.
    Illegal immigration increased. Apprehensions at the Southwest border rose 14.7% last year compared with 2016.
    Coal production declined 26.5%, and coal-mining jobs dropped by 25%. Carbon emissions from energy consumption dropped 11.3%.
    Handgun production rose 12.5% last year compared with 2016, setting a new record.
    The murder rate last year rose to the highest level since 1997.
    Trump filled one-third of the Supreme Court, nearly 30% of the appellate court seats and a quarter of District Court seats."
    Are you ready?

  6. & Obama bailed out Wall Street and the big bankers. Went to town with the drones etc. etc.

    That's a real bird's nest BB or a squirrel's nest. Lest we forget then came the pandemic.

  7. Also lots of Mom and Pop stores went under. Call this the Fauci Effect.

  8. Blame the scientist - I blame the microbe. But I agree, the pandemic
    ran riot on the economy, no matter who was running the rowboat.

  10. I can see how this can happen. Friday night during a rally in Milwaukee Trump's microphone wasn't working right for a whole hour. He became aggravated and simulated a sex act on the mic......

    Oh the humanity!!!

    Pundits said this disqualifies him. You ever been aggravated BB? Spilled some hot coffee in my lap while driving one day. I made up curse words. I combined them. Don't hold it against me.

    1. Aggravated? Indeed - Daylight Savings Time. Got clocks and watches all over the house, some on 24 hour time, some on Greenwich Time, some on Bangladesh Time. Not sure when to eat of go to bed. Dump that stuff - Diddy could run on it and win, ya know?

  11. This was the glaring headline on Drudge today. Drudge used to be good. Don't know what happened.

  12. I know you are serious about conservation, so am passing along info about an area matter. Some Idaho guy was killing Bald Eagles and selling the feathers on the internet. For years. He was charged with
    150 identified kills, but they suspect he may have harvested upwards
    of 3500. 4 years in jail and $800,000 in fines. He started in 1988 and had an internet store where he bragged about it. Small wonder they were endangered.

  13. Scum of the Earth poachers and people like that.

    Few months ago I was sitting on my front porch puffing on my cigar when a clearly identifiable Bald Eagle flew overhead. Probably heading for the Hudson or a stopover at a White Castle. In Yonkers! First time in my life I actually saw one in the wild.

  14. How does one pay $800,000 in fines btw? Maybe his was a lucrative business just wondering how some people pay.

    1. Get a loan from Diddy? Hide out at Amon Bundy's secret place along the Green River below where the Duchesne comes in from the west, just about where the White River enters -up the path to the Book Cliffs and into the box canyon half a mile north? (Oops, did I reveal anything?) Best guess- he will raise cash by exterminating some other endangered species -

  15. American emblem. Ben Franklin thought it should be the turkey (zapped by lighting with his key on a string?). Used to see them on canoe trips. Called one that was screeching in the woods with the
    famous BB screech. Came out and hovered over our canoe on the upper Red Cedar River. Says to the Mrs. "don't make a noise like a baby deer, dear". She said "Shut up", eagle left for better hunting.

  16. thinking about the Liz Cheney thing - if a far right very conservative person abandons Trump for Harris, as several have, it means nothing to voters, but bleeds into the History of Civilization. (Ch 93- the year the US went batshit crazy) As your nephew's great grandkids will read. Outside chance we end up in the foot notes- neat

  17. But does that work in reverse? Say some Dems don't like their candidate do they vote Republican? Never seems to work that way though.
