Rep Liz Cheney is all over the news as the GOP just voted her out of a leadership position in the House. Liberals are upset as they feel she is an honest Republican since she voted to impeach Trump. So the MSM seems to be backing her except for CBS that is. CBS actually did some honest reporting for a minute and had a guest on that explained how she isn’t all that important. On CBS “This Morning,” Major Garrett pointed this out.
Co-Host Anthony Mason: “Chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett joins us now. Major, good morning.
Good morning. How significant is this vote?”
GARRETT: “Let me give you a two-part answer. For everyday Americans it is not significant, Anthony. I mean, we’re talking about the number-three leader in the House Republicans which is the minority party in the House. Now, this is no aspersions against the Republicans, but that’s like the third-string quarterback on the JV high school football team. You don’t have any power in the House of Representatives, and we’re talking about the number-three leader. So For Americans trying to figure out whether they should buy a gallon of gas or worried about inflation, this does not affect their life.
But symbolically it is massively important. Why? Because Liz Cheney in that speech and her overall remarks in the last three weeks is laying down a marker. The marker is this: “Either you believe in the Constitution, federalism, the way we conduct our elections, and that this election is actually over, or you don’t. And if you don’t believe that, you’re going to vote me out of office.” In a kind of a medieval ritual like she’s being stoned or burned at the stake and she wants to be.”
Watch The Clip Below.
Garrett backtracked a little bit and does end up supporting her. But at least he started off with the right idea. There was no reason to impeach Trump, everyone knew that. Rep Cheney was just drinking the liberal Kool-aid and should have known better. That’s why she is losing her place now.
