Disgraced former Rep. Lize Cheney (R-WY) has hinted that she’s considering a challenge against President Donald Trump by refusing to rule out a presidential run next year.
During a Sunday interview on CNN’s “State of the Union,” said she wanted to work with both Republicans and Democrats in an effort to stop Trump.
CNN anchor Jake Tapper asked Cheney if she is ruling out a run in 2024 herself.
“No, I’m not,” Cheney said.
Moments earlier, Tapper pressed Cheney on whether she would vote for Democrat President Joe Biden over Trump.
“We’re going to see what happens,” said Cheney, daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney
“We’re going to see how things unfold.”
Cheney called Trump a “threat” and said she would “imagine that there will be a number of other candidates in the race.”
She also claimed Biden is more effective on the international stage than Trump.
However, Cheney conceded that she thought Biden’s withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan was “probably the biggest mistake that we made post-9/11.”
Trump is running a 2024 campaign for a second term in the White House and has dominated Republican presidential nomination polls in a field with several other candidates.
If he prevails in the primary contest, Trump is poised to have a 2020 rematch against Biden.
