Former GOP Rep. Liz Cheney issued a series of dire warnings about a potential future Trump administration in an interview with NBC News’ “Meet the Press.” Cheney criticized Trump’s beliefs that he would be immune from prosecution while in office, and warned that he would not respect court rulings, leading to a breakdown in the rule of law. She also agreed with retired Gen. Mark Milley’s assessment of Trump as a fascist to the core. Cheney highlighted Trump’s actions on Jan. 6 as fundamentally cruel and warned of an erratic and chaotic foreign policy if Trump were to be re-elected.
Cheney endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, contrasting her support for an internationalist foreign policy with Trump’s isolationist stance. She criticized House Speaker Mike Johnson for claiming there was a peaceful transfer of power after the 2020 election, pointing to the Jan. 6 riot as evidence to the contrary. Cheney emphasized the importance of coming together to support Harris and prevent Trump from being elected again, citing the chaos and depravity she believes would result from another Trump administration. She expressed concern about Republicans like Johnson who continue to support Trump despite his inflammatory rhetoric about the election being rigged.
