Former Bush-era special assistant Scott Jennings laid out Republican Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney’s mistakes in her primary race on CNN Tuesday.
Cheney, after losing widespread support among Republican voters, is expected to lose her Tuesday primary election to Trump-endorsed Harriet Hageman, who is currently leading her double digits in recent polls. Jennings said “there’s a difference” between Cheney and moderate Republican Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski and Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp in their approach to opposing former President Donald Trump.
“What Cheney did is make it her entire life’s direction. This is her one and only mission,” Jennings said. “Kemp, Murkowski, they just sort of ignored Trump and they just sort of moved on with their lives and Kemp did win, it looks like Murkowski is gonna be okay, so I actually think there’s a path out of challenging him and it’s just not making it the center of your life. That’s her choice.”
