Smerel,
“Other than pure hating Trump what reason did Cheney give for anyone to vote for her?”
She lost in a REPUBLICAN PRIMARY. She lost to the people who voted for her 2,4, and 6 years ago!
Not because she hadn’t delivered for them.
She voted with Trump and the Republicans over 90% of the time and she has delivered for them.
The National Republican and Wisconsin Republican parties had abandoned their support for her.
It is very hard to win an election in a primary , if your party does not support you. Hageman was supported only because she was now a supporter of the BIG LIE.
Hageman, a former Wyoming Cruz delegate, who advised Cheney 2014 and campaigned for her in 2016, once openly described Trump as “racist and xenophobic,” and the “weakest” contender the Republicans could put forth.
Hageman had already lost and election and has never delivered anything. So she was a terrible candidate compared to Liz Cheney.
The only thing that changed is that Cheney wouldn’t let the Republican party lie about losing and overthrowing the election and Hageman did.
