Democrats Celebrate Endorsement of Darth Cheney
“Harris campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon said that the vice president was ‘proud’ to have Cheney’s support.”
Former Vice President Dick Cheney is apparently planning to vote for Kamala Harris in the 2024 election. The news was first delivered by former Wyoming Congresswoman Liz Cheney, then confirmed by the man himself.
The funniest thing about this is that some Democrats are celebrating this endorsement by Dick Cheney as if it was a good thing. They literally called this man a war criminal for years, but now cheer him as a member of their team.
NBC News reports:
Former Vice President Dick Cheney says he will vote for Harris
Former Vice President Dick Cheney announced Friday that he will cast his ballot for Vice President Kamala Harris this fall, confirming news that was first made public by his daughter, former Rep. Liz Cheney, earlier in the day.
Both Cheneys are Republicans, and the elder served under President George W. Bush. The younger Cheney, who endorsed Harris earlier this week, is one of former President Donald Trump’s most prominent conservative critics.
“In our nation’s 248-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump,” Dick Cheney said in a statement. “He tried to steal the last election using lies and violence to keep himself in power after the voters had rejected him. He can never be trusted with power again.”
“As citizens, we each have a duty to put country above partisanship to defend our Constitution. That is why I will be casting my vote for Vice President Kamala Harris,” he added.
Harris campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon said that the vice president was “proud” to have Cheney’s support.
Never-Trumpers on the right also celebrated this development. In the clip below, Nicolle Wallace, a former George W. Bush staffer who is now a popular MSNBC host, speaks to Tim Miller of the anti-Trump publication, The Bulwark.
These people seem to harbor some fantasy that if they can just get rid of Trump, they will be brought back in to resume control of the GOP. They’re wrong.

If anything, most voters on the right are just disgusted.
All those years we defended the Establishment GOP and they knife us.
For Harris.

The always great Ace of Spades commented on this:
The betrayal is now almost complete. Everything we ever said about them — that this is a cadre of people who hate us so much but pander to us, completely insincerely, about the handful of issues we care about so they trick us into voting for them so they can pass endless tax cuts for themselves and fund endless foreign wars — is now proven.
When Ace says the betrayal is ‘almost’ complete, I think you know what he means.
Last word goes to Kurt Schlichter.
I’m just waiting for George W. Bush to endorse Kamala. You know it’s going to happen.

Even a heart transplant didn’t bring him back from heartless. Cheney was extremely clever at hiding his abysmal nature. But then so has W.
I don’t believe Cheney hid his abysmal nature. He’s been “out” for a long time.
Both “Dick” and “Lezzie” Cheney got rich sending America’s children into endless wars, all to feed the pockets of the war machine.
DoD contracts transferred the nation’s wealth and both Cheney’s lined their pockets.
Of course Chainy thinks Trump is an existential threat to our “Democracy.” A threat to the Harris-Cheney-Bush war machine, and billions of dollars to Ukraine that can be laundered back as “campaign donations” and from being on the board of directors of the big boom corporations.
the person missing from the bottom pic is Victoria Nuland, Dick’s foreign affairs adviser
when that fact is known, it is not hard to understand how we got into two 20 year fiascos
Behind every evil man is an ugly evil woman egging him on.
Dick Cheney is one of the greatest disappointments of all time. He was the man. Now, he is just a pathetic traitor rooting for the destruction of America. Unreal. He should burn in hell.
What’s to wait for? George W. Bush let sitting members of his cabinet endorse Barky and essentially endorsed Barky, himself … not to mention the fact that George W. Bush never said anything about all the un-Constitutional and un-American sh*t that Barky pulled but came out gangbusters against Trump for a few mean tweets.
Trump
Said the impossible, the Iraq War was wrong
For that the Republican “establishment “ will forever hate him
They always hated us
That’s not exactly what he said. The Iraq War was definitely NOT wrong. It was necessary. People forget what the circumstances were.
What Trump said (which is what I have said since the very beginning) is that the “nation building” in Iraq was wrong. That is clear. My contention, from the very start, was that Saddam Hussein needed to be removed from power (that much was crystal clear to anyone with a brain from back in the First Gulf War when he intentionally dumped over 40 million barrels of oil into the gulf and lit just about every oil well in Kuwait on fire, all while he was being allowed to retreat in one of the most humiliating military defeats in human history) and control of those oil fields needed to be taken back. The arabs and Persians cannot be trusted with control of the oil fields – which none of them had anything to do with their development.
The Iraq War was clearly necessary and important … and in the end it ended up yielding more weapons of mass destruction than anyone had even imagined, since it was the Iraq War that scares the sh*t out Q’Daffy and caused him to puke up his entire nuclear program which exposed the AQ Khan network, which was the most dangerous WMD operation on the planet.
Iraq was soundly defeated in a day. It was the inane post-war nation building that was the mistake. Iraq’s oil fields should have been seized and the Iraqis left to run around in the desert stabbing each other in the butts, as arabs are wont to do.
No, Trump said the war was wrong, it wasn’t the right war, the right war was Afghanistan, early , hit it , and get out
That didn’t happen
And he was wrong in that. But he also said that if we had to go in that the place had to be taken down and we would just leave. I’m not sure if he added anything about the oil fields (which is the lynchpin of all threats emanating from the arab/persian/muslim world).
I happened to have disagreed with Trump, strongly, on his opposition to the Iraq invasion but I was generally in agreement with his opinion about how it should have happened, if it had to (and it did have to).
Concussionate Conservatives all.
george w. bush.
the patriot act.
should have been grounds for hanging.
r wise the Cheney’s are a perfect match for what Dems have become and they the the kind of Republicans none of us want. Their hatred of Trump is a testament to Trump’s good character..
Dick Cheney and Alec Baldwin, just two of the shooters for Kamala.
You CANNOT get more hypocritical than that, the love of Cheney, unless you are a Cheney showing your own hypocrisy.
It is the epitome of the way Democrats approach politics. Machiavelli and Orwell conjoined. The only principles are no principles. If only the policies did not cause havoc and destruction. But they do because their idea of America is un-American.
The self-hating nihilist democrats’ policies ARE havoc and destruction. That is their only point.
Sorry as a McCain.
Darth Cheney <– that is so perfect! LOL!
The rest of the neocons who want the USA to be the Wold Police can follow him over to the d/prog where their heart has been for the past two decades anyway. These are the same folks who are cheerleaders for big gov’t programs, big govt payrolls, payola for big corporations and the big public debts that come with those things. That debt is gonna crush us and especially our Grandkids.
Conservatives celebrate the party change of Alan Dershowitz.
Not very close. He became an Independent and was never the antithesis of what he is now.
He hasn’t changed his stripes, he just changed the name of the stripes.
Has anyone actually heard from Dick Cheney, aside from his daughter speaking on his behalf? Lizzy has a history of speaking on behalf of other people, without their permission.
Dick Cheney cut an embarrassing ad for his dirtbag daughter in the House primary. It was pathetic and marked the point of Dick Cheney’s descent into the abyss.
Dirtbag Dick is still alive? I guess McCain (the dead one) will come out next and endorse Harris. Oh so uniparty of them!
When the Patriot Act (and the opening of the Republic’s barn doors) came to be, it seemed to me it had Dick Cheney’s fingerprints all over it. If anyone is a threat to our democracy it’s Cheney (pick one or both).
Why do leftists and their toadies always look sinister and pissed off?
President Trump should wear Cheneys endorsement of Harris as a scalp
Wear it proudly
Which one do you think is the bigger Globalist whore, Dick or his skank daughter? I bet Dick gives Klaus Schwab a better BJ because he can pull his dentures out. Pathetic losers, both.
