Trial Balloon · Ep. 190: Trump Is Everywhere

Liz Cheney Suggests New Political Party May Be Needed

September 21, 2024 · 2:02 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) suggested that a new political party might need to be created to replace the Republican Party if he is defeated, the New York Times reports.

Said Cheney: “Whether it’s organizing a new party — look, it’s hard for me to see how the Republican Party, given what it has done, can make the argument convincingly or credibly that people ought to vote for Republican candidates until it really recognizes what it’s done.”

She added: “There is certainly going to be a big shift, I think, in how our politics work. I don’t know exactly what that will look like. I don’t think it will just simply be, well, the Republican Party is going to put up a new slate of candidates and off to the races. I think far too much has happened that’s too damaging.”
