Former President Donald Trump called former Rep. Liz Cheney a “stupid warhawk” after the ex-lawmaker campaigned with Vice President Kamala Harris on Thursday.

“All she wants to do is shoot missiles at people,” Trump said of the former Wyoming congresswoman who appeared at a campaign rally for Harris in Wisconsin. “I think they hurt each other,” Trump added. “I think they’re so bad, both of them.”

Cheney overwhelmingly lost her congressional seat in deep red Wyoming two years ago after colluding with Democrats to impeach Trump over the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021. Voters elected Harriet Hageman, a prominent attorney in the state, by more than 37 points in 2022 despite the incumbent congresswoman’s strategy of courting Democrats to save her campaign.

Cheney, however, was exiled from the Republican Party long before voters removed her from office for running deep state campaigns to demand an aggressive interventionist foreign policy and foil another Trump presidency. In Congress, Cheney never met a war she didn’t like, including the lawfare campaign waged against political dissidents.

Months after Cheney corralled a few Republicans to join her in the 2021 impeachment vote against Trump, then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi selected her to help run the Democrats’ Soviet-style inquisition known as the Select Committee on Jan. 6. Pelosi picked Cheney shortly after the three-term congresswoman had been kicked from her as conference chair, the number three role in GOP leadership. Cheney had already been censured by Republicans in her own state earlier that year, but was no longer recognized as a member of the GOP by the state party that November.

Pelosi barred the appointments of then-GOP House leader Kevin McCarthy, which included Reps. Jim Banks of Indiana and Jim Jordan of Ohio, “because of their possible involvement in the insurrection,” she wrote in her new book.

As vice chair of the Jan. 6 panel, Cheney ran election interference for the Democrats throughout the 2022 midterms and ultimately endorsed Pelosi for speaker just days before Election Day. Cheney’s role steering the weaponized House committee included peddling hyperbolic narratives about the Jan. 6 riot and even burying critical evidence that would have undermined the Democrats’ latest hoax.

In March, Federalist Editor-in-Chief Mollie Hemingway exposed the Jan. 6 committee for concealing testimony from former White House Deputy Chief of Staff Anthony Ornato. On Jan. 28, 2022, in his first interview with the select committee, Ornato told lawmakers he overheard Chief of Staff Mark Meadows urge D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser to mobilize as many National Guard troops as needed.

“He also testified President Trump had suggested 10,000 would be needed to keep the peace at the public rallies and protests scheduled for January 6, 2021,” Hemingway reported. “Ornato also described White House frustration with Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller’s slow deployment of assistance on the afternoon of January 6, 2021.”

Cheney and her committee exhaustively tried to frame Trump as an apathetic commander-in-chief eager to see the Capitol in turmoil, when Trump, in fact, pled for congressional leadership to accept reinforcements from the National Guard. Pelosi repeatedly rejected the demands for added security after she had condemned the presence of federal troops in the capital the prior summer.

After endorsing prominent Democrats in key races, Cheney’s choice for president this fall was never in doubt.

Cheney pledged on NBC last year she would “do whatever it takes to make sure that Donald Trump is defeated in 2024.”

But Cheney has also been campaigning for other high-profile Democrats in races against conservative Republicans, such as Colin Allred’s campaign to replace Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas.

The Trump campaign published a clip from NBC featuring Wisconsin voters who were asked about Cheney’s endorsement for Vice President Harris.

“Do you think that Liz Cheney speaks for the Republican Party?” they were asked.

“No,” one said.

“Absolutely not,” said the other.
