Well, until she is no longer an asset I suppose, Cheney has bought herself some fawning from the media. Zendo Deb notes that the media has found their favorite toy
The lament begins. (Wailing and gnashing of teeth? Probably not that bad.) Rep. Liz Cheney loses her primary in Wyoming to Trump-backed challenger
The media always loves a Republican loser. They love them better when they lose to Democrats, but they take what they can get.
Cheney was first elected to the House seat her father once held in 2016, and she was immediately tagged a rising star because of her background — both her father’s legacy and her experience as a senior State Department official — and her ability to deliver political messages forcefully and succinctly.
If it was any deeper, I would need hip waders just to read the article. And this is not the worst of the few I glanced at.
Of course they love her. She hates Trump, and that is enough for now.
Exactly. Look at Me Liz is getting her publicity, and I am sure book deals, and big money speaking engagements will make Liz richer and richer. And the media will be all abuzz when Cheney announces her presidential run. They will trot out poll after poll, and talking heads by the dozen to praise the “courage” and “perseverance” of Cheney. They will give her such sympathy and maybe shed some fake tears that poor Liz was abandoned b her party because TRUMP! TRUMP ruins everything! Of course there is one question no one can answer. Would “LOOK AT ME” Liz pick Adam “Give me a Kleenex” Kinzinger as a running mate? Would he cry when asked? OK, we know he would cry, like a baby, he might even do snot bubbles. Team Lizinger would be born, and electoral disaster would follow.
Of course were Hell to freeze over twice, and Cheney actually became the GOP nominee, the media would still fawn over her, until she was the nominee. Then they would savage her, her father, the Bush family, and everything else GOP. Does Liz Cheney care? Naw because publicity, and $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
