Dick Morris – In the current Republican Party leadership in the House, it is lead, follow, or get out of the way, and Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., is going to have to do the latter, according to political strategist Dick Morris and American Conservative Union chair Matt Schlapp on Newsmax TV.

“This whole talk about split in the Republican Party, there is no split: It’s 99-1,” Morris told Saturday’s “The Count” about Cheney’s lack of support within the House GOP. “The Republican Party is solidly behind Trump, and the Democratic and liberal media efforts to portray a split, is ridiculous.”

Cheney is going to lose her House leadership position not just because of her “animus” against former President Donald Trump, but because she just is no longer a part of the GOP “coalition,” Morris and Schlapp told host Heather Childers.

“There’s this real popular uprising across the country, because Washington has failed them,” Schlapp told Childers. “So, consistently, except for the short tenure of Donald Trump as president, the thing about congresswoman Cheney is she will be kicked out of her leadership position. I think that’s a fait accompli that she almost wants to happen.

“When you’re in leadership in the house, part of being in leadership is you go along with the message and the agenda of that majority, and she’s had a very independent streak.”

Most notably, according to both Morris or Schlapp, is Cheney’s “animus” against Trump has left her with no support among the GOP. “She is not a fan of Donald Trump,” Schlapp continued. “She’s never been a fan of Donald Trump. She has a different world view than his desire to pull back our troops overseas, and she’s got every right to have that point of view. It’s just not very popular in the conference or with other Republicans.”

Schlapp does admit Cheney has had a more conservative voting record than Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y. – a potential replacement for Cheney as the House Republican Conference chair – but that is a function of the districts and constituents they serve in 2 vastly different states Wyoming and New York.

“This is one of those cases where you could actually have a more conservative voting record like Liz Cheney has but failed to understand the most important part of this coalition was, which is staying close to President Trump and his policies, which are overwhelmingly popular,” Schlapp added, noting Stefanik started “defending Donald Trump during the second impeachment and actually both impeachments and she won a lot of hearts and minds.”

Trump Rips McConnell, Senate GOP for Showing ‘No Fight’ https://dailyconcord.com/trump-rips-mcconnell-senate-gop-for-showing-no-fight/ Sat, 26 Dec 2020 20:21:31 +0000 https://dailyconcord.com/?p=15008 Trump – President Donald Trump has kept the pressure on Senate Republicans amid his campaign

Trump – President Donald Trump has kept the pressure on Senate Republicans amid his campaign election challenges and a push for $2,000 stimulus checks that would be a tough order for the party’s fiscal hawks.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., has proved to be less a supporter of the president this fall, saying he considered the White House off-limits during coronavirus outbreaks, willfully jumping to defend Joe Biden as president-elect amid election challenges, and telling Republicans in the Senate to not jump on the effort to contest the Electoral College on Jan 6.

McConnell has said he considers Biden a friend.

Trump comments came in a tweetstorm from the winter White House of Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida:

“I will not stand by and watch this travesty of a bill happen without reigning in Big Tech. End Section 230 now, before it is too late. So bad for our Country. Show courage, and do what’s right!!!”

“Our $740 defence bill is a gift to China, Russia & Big Tech. It fails to terminate the internationally dangerous Section 230, won’t allow us to bring our troops back home (where they belong), renames & destroys our forts & National Monuments, & makes 5G almost impossible!”

“The ‘Justice’ Department and the FBI have done nothing about the 2020 Presidential Election Voter Fraud, the biggest SCAM in our nation’s history, despite overwhelming evidence. They should be ashamed. History will remember. Never give up. See everyone in D.C. on January 6th.”

“Where the hell is the Durham Report? They spied on my campaign, colluded with Russia (and others), and got caught. Read the Horowitz Reports about Comey & McCabe. Even the Fake News @nytimes said ‘bad’. They tried it all, and failed, so now they are trying to steal the election!”

“The U.S. Supreme Court has been totally incompetent and weak on the massive Election Fraud that took place in the 2020 Presidential Election. We have absolute PROOF, but they don’t want to see it – No ‘standing’, they say. If we have corrupt elections, we have no country!”

“A young military man working in Afghanistan told me that elections in Afghanistan are far more secure and much better run than the USA’s 2020 Election. Ours, with its millions and millions of corrupt Mail-In Ballots, was the election of a third world country. Fake President!”

“I simply want to get our great people $2000, rather than the measly $600 that is now in the bill. Also, stop the billions of dollars in ‘pork’.”

Congress is set to convene Monday to weigh the override of the presidential veto of the National Defense Authorization Act and reconsidering the stimulus impact payments, if not the foreign aid in the recently passed appropriations omnibus.
