Former Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., a once-rising star in the GOP who fell out with her party over her criticism of Donald Trump, slammed the former president as an “unrecoverable catastrophe” in her call for other Republicans to vote against him this year.

“We see it on a daily basis, somebody who was willing to use violence in order to attempt to seize power, to stay in power, someone who represents unrecoverable catastrophe, frankly, in my view, and we have to do everything possible to ensure that he’s not reelected,” Cheney told “This Week” co-anchor Jonathan Karl.

I’ll take any help that saves democracy at this point. Every bit helps, one step at a time. Get rid of MAGA FIRST. You take the bus that gets you closest to your destination.

We’re nearly at the point where Dems need to start running billboard ads like “your vote is yours and yours alone. No one can tell who you voted for”.

Or you burn down all buses that lead to massive oppression and set themselves as your enemies by taking you towards genocide, border violence, police funding and massive military imperialism.

Good idea, when you have two busses burn them both down and pout about not being able to get anywhere.

Or build your own bus or kill the driver and drive the bus somewhere safe considering both drivers are plainly advertising they plan to run over pediatricians.

They want you to board the one going the exact opposite of your destination and burn the other.
