Trump Criticizes Democrats for Cheney Involvement

President-elect Donald Trump criticized the Democratic Party for involving former Republican Representative Liz Cheney and her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney, in their 2024 election campaign, calling it a 'BIG mistake.' Trump, who has frequently targeted the Cheneys for their opposition to his policies, referred to them as 'losers' and criticized Liz Cheney specifically as a 'radical war hawk.' His remarks, including violent rhetoric suggesting Cheney should face 'nine barrels shooting at her,' have drawn significant backlash from both Democrats and Republicans. The Harris campaign condemned Trump's statements as disqualifying for any presidential candidate. Liz Cheney and her father had endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign, which was seen as an attempt to appeal to Republican voters disenchanted with Trump. The controversy has sparked an investigation by Arizona's Attorney General into whether Trump's comments violated any laws.
