Sanders argued that \u200bCheney&#8217;s support for a candidate she describes \u2064as &#8220;the most radical\u2064 nominee that \u200cthe \u2062Democrats have ever put up&#8221; disqualifies her from calling herself \u2062a \u200dconservative \u200bor\u200c a Republican. Cheney&#8217;s endorsement came with warnings about the potential dangers of Donald Trump returning to the \u2063presidency. Sanders claimed Cheney \u200drepresents a minority within the Republican\u200d Party and deemed her endorsement a &#8220;nonfactor.&#8221; She \u2064emphasized that the\u2063 focus should not be on Cheney\u2019s endorsement but rather on her efforts to position herself as a conservative while supporting candidates contrary to\u200d conservative values. Additionally, Sanders addressed\u200b questions about Trump&#8217;s\u200c proposed tariffs,\u200b arguing that they\u2064 are \u2063a means to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/oil-gas-industry-other-stakeholders-oil-reserve-release-temporary-real-relief-calls-for-domestic-energy-production\/\" title=\"Oil, Gas Industry, Other Stakeholders: Oil Reserve Release Temporary, Real Relief Calls for Domestic Energy Production\">encourage domestic production<\/a> and self-reliance in the U.S. The context of this discourse coincides with the\u2064 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/hutchinson-claims-he-has-qualified-for-first-republican-debate-rnc-yet-to-confirm\/\" title=\"Hutchinson asserts debate qualification, RNC confirmation pending.\">upcoming presidential debate<\/a> between Trump\u200c and\u200c Harris.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Sarah Huckabee Sanders says Cheney is no conservative for endorsing &lsquo;radical&rsquo; Harris<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1755244\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Gov. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/sarah-huckabee-sanders\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Sarah Huckabee Sanders<\/a> (R-AR) rebuked former Wyoming Republican Rep. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/liz-cheney\/\">Liz Cheney<\/a> for endorsing Vice President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/kamala-harris\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Kamala Harris<\/a> in the 2024 presidential race, arguing the former lawmaker is someone who wants to &ldquo;protect the establishment.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>Cheney gave her endorsement to the Democratic Party&rsquo;s presidential candidate on Wednesday, warning about &ldquo;the danger&rdquo; former President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Donald Trump<\/a> would bring to a second presidential term.

Cheney announced her support for Harris on Wednesday, expressing concerns about the potential dangers of a second term for former President Donald Trump. Sanders, who backed Trump\u2019s candidacy last year, stated that Cheney and other Republicans who support Harris are part of a minority and that her endorsement is insignificant. &#8220;I don\u2019t mean to be rude, but you can\u2019t call yourself a conservative or a Republican if you\u2019re backing the most radical nominee the Democrats have ever put forward,&#8221; Sanders remarked on ABC News. She emphasized that this does not align with conservative values and suggests an inclination to maintain the status quo. When asked about Trump&#8217;s proposed tariffs potentially contradicting conservative principles by raising taxes on voters, Sanders defended them as necessary tools to encourage domestic production and self-reliance in manufacturing goods. The upcoming Tuesday debate will be significant as it marks the first face-off between Trump and Harris after President Joe Biden withdrew from his reelection campaign. According to Sanders, this debate carries greater importance for Harris since she has largely shunned media engagement during her campaign and her policies remain unclear. In addition to Cheney&#8217;s endorsement, Harris has also received support from former Vice President Dick Cheney, who stated he would vote for her because he believes Trump should never hold power again\u2014a sentiment praised by Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) for its courage in defending democracy. However, neither candidate will receive endorsements from former President George W. Bush or his wife Laura Bush; their office simply responded &#8220;no&#8221; when asked about potential endorsements due to Bush&#8217;s retirement from politics years ago<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2632,"featured_media":2338460,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Sarah-Huckabee-Sanders-scaled-1024x683.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[538],"tags":[35305,40143,35290],"class_list":["post-2338459","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-washington-examiner","tag-conservative-politics","tag-liz-cheney","tag-sarah-huckabee-sanders"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Sarah-Huckabee-Sanders-scaled-1024x683.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2338459","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2632"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2338459"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2338459\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2338460"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2338459"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2338459"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2338459"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
