Liz Cheney on Sunday issued a series of dire warnings about a potential future Trump administration, telling NBC News\u2019 \u201cMeet the Press\u201d that people ought to \u201ccarefully\u201d consider what another Trump presidency would look like.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cDonald Trump believes he will be immune for anything he does once he\u2019s in office,\u201d Cheney, a fierce Trump critic, told moderator Kristen Welker.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The former congresswoman, who has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/2024-election\/liz-cheney-endorses-kamala-harris-president-rcna169654\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris <\/a>and has campaigned with her, pointed to the Supreme Court\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/supreme-court\/supreme-court-rules-trump-may-immunity-federal-election-inter-rcna149135\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ruling <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/supreme-court\/supreme-court-rules-trump-may-immunity-federal-election-inter-rcna149135\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in July <\/a>that the former president is immune from criminal prosecution for certain official actions he took while in office.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cDonald Trump believes he will be immune for anything he does once he\u2019s in office,\u201d she said. \u201cHe will not respect the rulings of our courts, and people have to realize our courts can\u2019t enforce their own rulings. So if a president refuses to carry out his obligation to do so, then we are no longer a nation of laws.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cThe people that stopped him from his worst desires last time around won\u2019t serve again,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Cheney also<strong> <\/strong>declined to disagree with remarks from retired Gen. Mark Milley, who was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under Trump and President Joe Biden, calling Trump \u201ca fascist to the core\u201d in a forthcoming book by Bob Woodward.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cI have tremendous respect for for Gen. Milley, and I see no reason to disagree with that assessment,\u201d Cheney said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">NBC News has reached out to the Trump campaign for comment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Cheney said Trump\u2019s actions on Jan. 6, 2021, when his supporters rioted at the U.S. Capitol for hours while the then-president watched without condemning them, were \u201cfundamentally cruel,\u201d drawing a comparison to Trump\u2019s repeated false statements that the federal government under Biden is preventing aid from going to hurricane-stricken areas. Cheney was vice chair of the House committee that investigated the attack on the Capitol.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cThink about the fact our fellow citizens are in dire straits, they\u2019re in dire needs, people\u2019s lives are at risk, and he\u2019s lying to them for his own political gain about where they can get relief,\u201d Cheney said. \u201cThat kind of cruelty makes somebody unfit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The former congresswoman also warned that another Trump administration would bring an \u201cerratic and a chaotic\u201d foreign policy agenda because she said \u201cDonald Trump is embracing tyrants. Donald Trump loves tyrants. He idolizes them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cJD Vance and Donald Trump both support a very isolationist foreign policy and an erratic and a chaotic foreign policy,\u201d Cheney said, referring to the Republican senator from Ohio, who is the former president\u2019s running mate. Cheney cited an internationalist foreign policy, including strong support for Ukraine in its defensive war against Russia, as an area where she agrees with Harris.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Cheney was also asked to address her previous comments blasting Harris and Biden. In 2020, she <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/watch\/?v=2685531935053205\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told Fox News<\/a> that Harris was a \u201cradical liberal\u201d and that \u201cher policies are simply, completely inconsistent with what most Americans believe in and stand for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">On Sunday, the former congresswoman said her previous comments \u201creflect absolutely that we had a policy disagreement on a series of issues,\u201d but added, \u201cthat\u2019s why it\u2019s so important for people to focus on the fact that I am supporting her now, and that there\u2019s such a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/2024-election\/harris-campaigns-outreach-plan-republican-voters-rcna165040\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">broad coalition<\/a> that\u2019s coming together to support her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cIt\u2019s based in part on who she is, on the fact that she will lead with a sincere heart, on the fact that she is somebody who\u2019s dedicated her life to public service, and looking at what Donald Trump poses, the kind of of chaotic, absolute depravity that he would bring if he were ever to be elected again,\u201d Cheney added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The former congresswoman also criticized House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., who appeared on the program before her, for saying there was a peaceful transfer of power to Biden after Trump lost in 2020.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cWe have the peaceful transfer of power,\u201d Johnson told Welker when asked whether he was committed to certifying the results of the upcoming election, regardless of who wins.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cWe did in 2020. We will in 2024. Everybody can sigh and take a deep breath that our system is going to work,\u201d Johnson added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Cheney disputed Johnson\u2019s claim, pointing to the Jan. 6 riot as evidence that the transfer of power was not peaceful.<\/p>\n<p class=\"endmark\">Johnson \u201chas a record repeatedly of doing things that he knows to be wrong, that he knows to be unconstitutional, in order to placate Donald Trump,\u201d Cheney said, citing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/congress\/mike-johnson-january-6-house-speaker-nominee-rcna122081\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Johnson<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/congress\/mike-johnson-january-6-house-speaker-nominee-rcna122081\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u2019<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/congress\/mike-johnson-january-6-house-speaker-nominee-rcna122081\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">s role<\/a> in the efforts to overturn the 2020 election. \u201cAnd frankly, you saw that sycophancy just now on display. So I think that it is very concerning. I do think that Donald Trump has consistently said again and again and again, you know, in the last few months, that this election is going to be rigged, and that if he loses, that\u2019s why. So I think it\u2019s very important that that the Republicans not be in the majority in the House come January 2025.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/2024-election\/liz-cheney-issues-dire-warning-fundamentally-cruel-trump-agrees-s-fasc-rcna175193\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former GOP Rep.
