Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday celebrated the removal of Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) from her role in House GOP leadership.
Trump derided Cheney in personal terms in a statement following a vote to oust her as GOP House Conference chair over her repeated criticisms of the former president and his frequent unproven claims about the 2020 election.
“Liz Cheney is a bitter, horrible human being. I watched her yesterday and realized how bad she is for the Republican Party,” Trump said in a statement, referencing a speech in which Cheney vowed she would not remain silent about Trump’s election lies.
Trump also dismissed Cheney as a “talking point for Democrats,” suggesting she was a distraction from issues like the border and the economy.
“She is a warmonger whose family stupidly pushed us into the never-ending Middle East Disaster, draining our wealth and depleting our Great Military, the worst decision in our Country’s history,” Trump said. “I look forward to soon watching her as a Paid Contributor on CNN or MSDNC!”
