Representative Liz Cheney admitted Wednesday that she is “thinking about” running for president in 2024, hours after losing the Republican primary for Wyoming’s only House seat to Trump-backed Harriet Hageman in a landslide.
Hageman, a political newcomer, bested the 56-year-old daughter of former vice president Dick Cheney by more than 30 percentage points with 90 percent of the vote counted, handing former president Donald Trump what is perhaps his biggest victory yet this primary cycle by knocking off his chief antagonist in Congress.

She is delusional

Old Liz and The Mailman's Son would make a powerhouse GOPe ticket for sure. Have pedo Lincoln Project run the campaign as a finishing touch for the old guard.

First, she's only 56? Holy moly, I thought she was in her mid 60s. Second, she's high if she thinks anyone would vote for her. In dem circles the Cheney name is mud and she just made it so in the repub world too. It's time for her to get a job at the local Cracker Barrel and leave the politics to people with the ability to make rational decisions without their daddy's input.

What a huge ego.
She would have to run as an independent since neither party would back her. The Dems would not back her. Hopefully, neither would the Pubbies.

I know there's no point in trying to reason with a narcissist, but she should look at the fate of other failed RINOs. Dems will gladly cheer them on when they are attacking other Republicans, but they won't get any support afterwards.

She's mentally ill. We should provide "affirming" psychological care and all agree to tell her she really is the president and everyone loves her and she won 100% of the vote.

I've been thinking about making a run for the Presidency in 2024, too. I think I would have at least as good a chance of being elected as Liz(ard) Cheney. Oh, and I have also been thinking about winning the U.S. Open golf tournament, the Boston Marathon, Gran Prix of Monaco and Mr. Olympia. That's the wonderful thing about thinking. Reality never intrudes. Until it does.

Almost every "Republican" who has attacked Trump has faded from view. Beyond Trump returning criticism of them and supporting primary opponents, he hasn't done too much. Instead, the People have decided that such Republicans do NOT deserve to represent them.
Liz is one of the worst and she got thoroughly dismissed. Good luck running for president when you can't even win the primary for Congressman. Her arrogance shows she should have NO place in politics She spits in the face of the electorate. SHE knows what is best. She is the Empress that should rule us. She has a terminal case of "Washington" sickness. If she runs, it will only be to have the media cover her insane hatred of Trump.

If Cheney runs it will not be about her winning, but her trashing candidate Trump. There are "protest" candidates in every presidential primary field. Most are quickly ignored. If Cheney makes an effort she'll get 5-10 percent in polls, enough to get her invited to "debates". And then she has her opportunity to stand athwart history shouting STOP! She's walking out of Wyoming with millions left over from her congressional campaign.
I'm not clear on Wyoming ballot access laws...may one lose a primary and run in the general as an "independent"? She may not be gone yet.

Nothing says a shoe in like a setting Congressman getting crushed by her own party’s Primary.

Heres one for you to contemplate, cheney. PDJT is about 10000 times more popular that you are. Chew on that for a while.

“2024 run” sounds like a grifting gig for campaign donations and other goodies. She should be careful with that sort of activity, since she’s no longer useful to the Left. She’s not an untouchable any longer.

Lying Lizzie is now a pariah in the Republican Party, so the GOP nom is a non-starter. As is switching and becoming a Rat - she's nothing but a useful tool to them in their never-ending assault against Trump, and once she's out of Congress in January she's no longer of any use to them. Her only hope is that the Lincoln Project form a third party and run Liz "Lincoln" Cheney as their candidate, in which she would only serve to siphon votes away from whoever the Rats run.

The whole rationale would be to hopefully siphon off just enough votes to prevent the potential Republican nominee from winning in 2024, specifically if that nominee is President Trump.
The billionaires in the Democrat party would provide her hundreds of millions of dollars simply to do whatever she felt was needed to deny Trump, and they would be okay with whomever the Democrat nominee.

Sure, honey. I am thinking about a run myself. All the guys in my poker club like me so I should be a shoo-in even at age 80. Go for it.

It will make Kamala Harris' 2020 candidacy look wildly successful by comparison.
