Liz Cheney said politics are so broken that 'we're electing idiots'The former congresswoman also argued the GOP will crumble if Trump becomes its 2024 nominee.
Cheney made it clear that amid talk of a potential third-party bid, she has absolutely no interest in doing "anything that could help Donald Trump."
A daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, the former congresswoman thinks the party of Lincoln will crumble if the GOP renominates Trump as its presidential nominee.
"We're at a moment in our country where there is a tectonic shift going on in our politics," Liz Cheney said.
"And, I think in particular if the Republican Party — I'm not sure if it is salvageable now — if the Republican Party nominates Donald Trump it will shatter and we will have a whole new politics, as we should."
