According to Republicans, ‘the broad coalition’ that is voting for Vice President Harris is ‘putting patriotism ahead of partisanship.
Liz Cheney who is a Republican has arranged a campaign for Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris and convinced voters in the United States to reject the ‘ depraved cruelty’ of her rival Donald Trump, the former president.
On Thursday evening, Cheney said,’ I have never voted for a Democrat, but this year I am proudly casting my vote for Vice President Kamala Harris, at the event in the swing state of Wisconsin.
According to her, putting patriotism ahead of partisanship is not inspiration, this is our duty ‘ we have to perform this.
In the small community of Rippon where in 1854 the Republican Party was established, Cheney made an appearance with Harris.
After Cheney, Harris spoke and mentioned that she stood in the finest tradition of the Republican Party’s leaders.
She said she has seen the best qualities that she encourages to see in any individual’s character, specifically at a moment like this, in a situation where many horrible politics are trying to fear the people and threaten them.
The ex-vice president also backs Democrat
The appearance of Cheney and Harris came to an end when former vice president dick Cheney who was the father of Liz Cheney said that’ he will support Harris instead of Trump.
As a conservative, as someone who believes in and cares about the Constitution, I have thought deeply about this, and because of the danger that Donald Trump poses, not only am I not voting for Donald Trump, but I will be voting for Kamala Harris,” she said in remarks on September 4.
On Thursday, Cheney repeated her concerns about Trump, the de facto leader of the Republican Party, while delivering a full-throated endorsement of Harris.
“Vice President Harris has dedicated her life to public service. I know she loves our country, and I know she will be a president for all Americans. As a conservative, as a patriot, as a mother, as someone who reveres our Constitution, I am honored to join her in this urgent cause,” she said.
Cheney also explicitly referenced Trump’s attempts to sow doubt in the integrity of US elections.
In the wake of the 2020 presidential race, Trump refused to accept his defeat to Democrat Joe Biden, instead alleging widespread voter fraud “rigged” the results — a false claim.
“As we meet here today, our republic faces a threat unlike any we have faced before: a former president who attempted to stay in power by unravelling the foundations of our Republic by refusing to accept the lawful results, confirmed by dozens of courts, of the 2020 election,” Cheney said.
‘Reject the depraved cruelty’
Cheney’s visit to Wisconsin came a day after a federal judge unsealed a 165-page court filing outlining new evidence against Trump in a case accusing him of election interference in 2020.
Trump has pleaded not guilty to four federal charges of conspiracy and obstruction.
As she spoke to voters on Thursday, Cheney denounced Trump’s character as unpresidential. “I ask you to meet this moment. I ask you to stand in truth, to reject the depraved cruelty of Donald Trump, and I ask you instead to help us elect Kamala Harris for president.”
During her congressional career, from 2017 to 2023, Cheney rose to be the third-most senior Republican in the House of Representatives until she angered Trump and was forced out of her leadership role
Cheney was one of 10 Republican members of Congress who voted to impeach Trump in 2021.
The move came days after thousands of Trump supporters stormed the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, as part of an alleged effort to prevent the certification of Biden’s victory.
She was also the top Republican on the House committee that investigated the January 6 insurrection. Trump vowed revenge on those who had spoken against him, and in the summer of 2022, Cheney lost her primary in Wyoming to a challenger who had Trump’s support.
There was no immediate response from Trump to Thursday’s rally.
Wisconsin is among those handfuls of battleground states that have previously been won by just a few thousand votes.
