Former Wyoming Republican Rep. Liz Cheney is weighing her role in opposing a second term for former President Donald Trump, who is set to run against President Joe Biden again in 2024.
Cheney has yet to rule out running as a third-party candidate against Trump, vowing to take any necessary action to prevent the Republican from returning to the White House.
“I certainly wouldn’t rule out running for office again,” Cheney said about her future plans, speaking at the 103rd Stephen A. Ogden Jr. ’60 Memorial Lecture on International Affairs at Brown University this week.
Cheney served as vice chairwoman of the House Jan. 6 committee and was one of 10 House Republicans who joined Democrats in voting to impeach Trump for a second time following the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. Since losing her seat in August 2022 to a Trump-backed challenger in Wyoming’s primary, Cheney has been vocal about doing “whatever is necessary” to stop the former president from holding the Oval Office again.
“I haven’t made any decisions about it yet, but I’m going to do whatever is necessary to defeat Donald Trump,” Cheney said on CNN’s State of the Union last month.
