LIZ:
The former House Republican Conference chair and Trump critic, who was instrumental to the work of the House January 6 Committee, is unlikely to endorse President Joe Biden right now, given that alternative candidates to Trump like former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley are still in the race, Rubin wrote.
Trump should not be allowed to run for office. Period!
But the time is drawing near that Trump will be accepted as the inevitable nominee.
"Cheney, who has become the most articulate voice of sanity on the right, does not want to crush one of the challengers’ chances, no matter how slight," wrote Rubin, herself a former conservative who turned against the GOP in the Trump years. "So don’t expect her to do anything to foreclose whatever small possibility remains to defeat Trump in the primaries.
"That said, Cheney has begun to look ahead."
Cheney has already been pushing back on the efforts of other Trump-skeptic Republicans to make excuses to fall in line, Rubin noted. “There are some conservatives who are trying to make this claim that somehow [President] Biden is a bigger risk than Trump,” Cheney said on The View recently.
“My view is I disagree with a lot of Joe Biden’s policies. We can survive bad policies. We cannot survive torching the Constitution.”
