Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) on Aug. 116 became the eighth Republican who voted for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/t-donald-trump\">Donald Trump<\/a>\u2019s impeachment to either retire or be defeated by party rivals endorsed by the former president.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Cheney, one of Trump\u2019s most vociferous critics, was defeated in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/t-wyoming\">Wyoming<\/a>\u2019s Aug. 16 Republican primary for the state\u2019s lone congressional seat by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/t-harriet-hageman\">Harriet Hageman<\/a>, a Cheyenne natural resources attorney.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Hageman thanked Trump for his \u201csupport, encouragement, and guidance\u201d since she launched her campaign last September.

The former president\u2019s nod\u00a0 is \u201cwhat propelled us to where we are today,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In a state that voted 70 percent for Trump in 2020\u2014the highest tally for any candidate in any state\u2014Cheney fell into disfavor with many constituents for being among the 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump and for serving as co-chair of the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol breach.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Despite her constituents\u2019 overwhelming support for the former president, Cheney never relented in maintaining that Trump presents a risk to American democracy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Cheney didn\u2019t hesitate to make that point while addressing supporters in Jackson Hole after conceding the Aug. 16 race, telling supporters she remains committed to preventing Trump from returning to the White House.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cOur nation is barreling again toward crisis, lawlessness and violence,\u201d Cheney said. \u201cNo American should support election deniers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">But while Cheney\u2019s actions and Trump\u2019s endorsement were pivotal in Hageman\u2019s victory, there was also something else on Wyoming voters\u2019 minds\u2014and Hageman warned it is something that incumbents across the country should heed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cIf you are going to claim to live in Wyoming, you better damn well live in Wyoming.
