The Cheneys are monsters who shed the blood of upwards of a million Iraqis and ruined the lives of many more, in the process also laying down the foundations for the rise of ISIS and further destabilization of the Middle East, so Daddy Dick could giftwrap almost $40 billion in sweetheart contracts to Halliburton (where he still owned stock even after stepping down from the chairmanship) - not much different from Lady Bird Johnson being a primary stockholder in Bell Helicopter (manufacturer of the iconic Huey chopper) while her husband was getting the States waist-deep in the mud and jungles of Vietnam. And after all that, his daughter still has the audacity to repeatedly backstab her constituents, claim she's doing it for their own good, and then cry when they vote her dumb ass out.
The Bushes have done to their own country what the British Empire did to China with the Opium Wars, whether it was the Nicaraguan coke pushed by the CIA's pet psycho Contras in Papa Bush's day or Afghan opium pushed by the CIA's pet boy-raping Afghan warlords under Bush II.
It warms my heart to see these demonic dynasties crash and burn, from George P. Bush losing out to Ken Paxton in Texas and now Liz Cheney getting annihilated by a nearly 40-point margin. I'm only surprised that 1) blood-red states like Wyoming would elect such blatantly un-conservative bog monsters who hate them and everything they stand for in the first place, and 2) anyone actually misses their ilk. I'm not talking about the liberal talking heads bewailing Cheney's downfall as some great light of reason being snuffed out, what the hell's up with supposedly mainstream conservatives in online comment sections crying about how she was fundamentally more decent and righteous than Trump and such BS?
Unfortunately it's looking like Alaska's implementation of
ranked choice voting and open primaries is working exactly as intended to kneecap
Sarah Palin's House candidacy and
Kelly Tshibaka's Senate run, if the fractious primary results are any indicator. Still I must hope that Alaskans will turn things around and send the Murkowski dynasty to join the Bushes, Cheneys and Clintons in the dustbin of history where they belong this coming November.
