Former Representative Liz Cheney said voters, especially in swing states, cannot afford to put down any other name. She is voting for Kamala Harris.
Cheney said during his speech at Duke University:
Because we are here in North Carolina, I think it is critical that people not only recognize what I just said about the danger that Trump
That should deter people from voting for him, but I don't think we have the luxury of writing down the names of the candidates, especially in the swing states.
And as a conservative, as someone who believes in the Constitution and cares about it, I've thought about this very carefully. And because of the danger that Donald Trump poses, not only will I not vote for Donald Trump, I will vote for Kamala Harris..

What makes Liz Cheney's endorsement so effective is that Cheney did not vote for Trump, but she did not endorse Joe Biden either. In 2024, Liz Cheney has not only taken the step of impeaching Trump, but she is also making it clear that the best way to stop Trump is to unite an America without the MAGA movement and vote for Vice President Harris.
It was just 20 years ago that Liz Cheney's father, then-Vice President Dick Cheney, was viewed by many on the left as a war criminal for lying to the nation about invading Iraq.
Those days seem old-fashioned compared to the domestic threat Donald Trump poses to the country and his efforts to end democracy.
There will be plenty of time for Liz Cheney to return to her political life and try to rebuild what is left of her party, but now is the time for everyone to pitch in and for America to come together to stop Donald Trump.
