In an article in The Federalist, Jonathan Tobin describes Liz Cheney’s attempt at reeection in 2022 as “The Last Stand Of The Ancien Regime Republicans." His contrast of the Bushies with the modern GOP is spot on.
Wyoming conservatives understand that Trump’s populist defense of the working and middle class is a better fit for the party than one that seemed more in line with the interests of Wall Street.
I predict in August Wyoming will give its GOP House nomination to Harriet Hageman. Then Rep. Cheney decides if she will run as an independent, which might be a write-in effort.
She could be deluded enough to try, but the party is no longer her dad's GOP. The political 'tectonic plates' have shifted, the neocon “corporatist” types have left the building.
