Former Congresswoman Liz Cheney, known for her involvement in the J6 hoax, is set to join Vice President Kamala Harris on the campaign trail in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. The duo aims to target suburban voters in these key battleground states.
This collaboration comes after Liz Cheney and her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney, publicly endorsed the Democratic ticket. Their joint appearance in Wisconsin garnered attention and raised eyebrows, with many speculating on the impact of Cheney’s support on Harris’s campaign.
In response to Liz Cheney’s involvement, former President Donald Trump did not hold back his criticism, labeling her a “stupid Warhawk” during a recent interview. Trump expressed concern that Cheney’s presence could potentially harm Harris’s chances in the upcoming election.
According to reports from The Hill, the Harris campaign has organized events in the suburbs of the three battleground states, where Harris and Cheney will engage in conversations moderated by prominent Republicans. Sarah Longwell, publisher of The Bulwark, and conservative radio host Charlie Sykes will oversee these discussions, aiming to appeal to disaffected Republican voters who are hesitant to support Trump.
Harris’s campaign strategy includes reaching out to moderate Republicans by pledging to include a Republican in her Cabinet and establish a bipartisan council of advisers. This move is seen as an attempt to broaden her appeal and gain support from a diverse range of voters.
On the other hand, Trump remains unfazed by the competition, brushing off concerns about losing support from Nikki Haley primary voters and skeptical Republicans. When asked about reaching out to Haley for campaign support, Trump confidently stated that he would do what is necessary to secure victory in the election.
Jason Miller, a Trump advisor, expressed optimism about the collaboration between Harris and Cheney, believing it will ultimately backfire. He encouraged the Harris campaign to continue their efforts and even jokingly suggested bringing Dick Cheney into the mix.
Overall, the upcoming campaign events featuring Harris and Cheney in battleground state suburbs are expected to generate significant interest and debate as both parties strive to sway undecided voters and secure crucial support in the upcoming election.
