GOP Rep. Liz Cheney Tells Fox News Turkey Invaded Syria Because Democrats Launched Impeachment Inquiry Against Trump


By Jason Lemon On 10/14/19 at 9:04 AM EDT

Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney claimed in an interview with Fox News on Monday morning that Democrats are to blame for Turkey's invasion of Syria because they launched an impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump, despite the fact that the president withdrew U.S. forces from the Middle Eastern nation to give the Turkish forces the greenlight to enter.

"I also want to say that the impeachment proceedings that are going on and what the Democrats are doing themselves to try to weaken this president is part of this," Cheney, who represents Wyoming and is the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, argued.

"It was not an accident that the Turks chose this moment to roll across the border," she claimed. "And I think the Democrats have got to pay very careful attention to the damage that they're doing with the impeachment proceedings."

1. Republican instructions: 'Issue - _____________; Talking Point - Blame The Democrats.'

[Initech]

12. It's like 6 Degrees Of Kevin Bacon.

Except there's just one degree, and everything is the Democrats' fault! Seriously, fuck Fox News.

[whistler162]

66. with eggs and hash browns

[NRaleighLiberal]

[flibbitygiblets]

3. What, she didn't blame Obama too? Thought that was SOP.

what a disgusting piece of shite she and ALL Republicans are.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

34. She hadn't gotten the official talking point from the RNC yet

so she had to fall back on the old standby, "If something bad happens anywhere in the world, it's the Democrats fault."

[lagomorph777]

52. Actually, Turkey invaded because of Hillary's e-mails.

[rzemanfl]

4. She looks like her father and lies like him too. n/t

[They_Live]

57. Yep. Her dad in drag.

Ugh.

[Raven123]

5. Basically acknowledging Pres. Pottymouth's inability to walk & chew gum

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

6. How stupid can you get?

Lynn Cheney - Hold my beer

[OneBro]

8. Not stupid. Sleazy. Sleazy, leading the stupid.

[SCVDem]

7. The blame lies on the Captain of the ship!

Quit making excuses for a traitor.

Oh, that's right. You were raised by one!

[BumRushDaShow]

9. What is it that they always must default to

"it's the Democrats fault"... no matter what. And then the media will dutifully say that it is "both sides are being partisan" when you only have ONE side come out and make idiotic assertions such as this.

[riversedge]

14. She does not have many to convince in less populated WY, where her daddy is King!

[elleng]

11. Deflection with the 'best' of them.

[Javaman]

13. Thorazine, stat! nt

[machoneman]

67. Hah! That's funny but I think she had Thorazine or Jim Jones's Kool-Aid as a kid!

[earthside]

15. So ... Liz is conceding that Trump ...

... really is weak, lame, gullible, and incompetent.

Okay.

[sinkingfeeling]

17. So getting a green light from Traitor Don had nothing to do with it.

[Ford_Prefect]

19. B-B-But, Putin said it would be OK...

What? Vlad had nothing to do with it, again?

[NastyRiffraff]

The trouble is, the deplorables believe every word.

22. This woman is seriously cuckoo....

i mean, her sire was a vicious killer...

But this one...

[Canoe52]

33. +1,000 Was going to post a similar sentiment, she's nuts

Or she’s playing to the nuts, either way totally nuts!

[chowder66]

23. Yeah, that's it Liz. That's the reason.

Un...f*cking..believable.

[Zambero]

24. No. Trump said HAVE AT IT!

With predictable and horrific results.

[LeftInTX]

25. It took her a week to spin this

[UpInArms]

26. Pretzel much, Liz?

That is some pretty twisted thinking

[BillyBobBrilliant]

27. There is some

truth to that, in a perverted way...
Trump caused the debacle in Syria as another of his distraction schemes.

[GeorgeGist]

28. The STUPID runs deep. Eom

[SWBTATTReg]

29. liz is and always has been a joke. She has a particular brand of 'insult' politics that IMHO, I ...

don't care for and I'm tired of her dirty and filthy mouth. Seems like if these people are repugs, they feel like they are the only ones that know it all and thus, can insult and ridicule everyone else. Idiots. After a while, 'insult' politics gets old, and out of date. People do care about the issues instead, and desire a 'meaty' and 'substantive' conversation on issues.

[BigMin28]

30. Still trying to get

Daddy's approval. "Do you love me now Daddy?"

[TheFarseer]

32. That talking point seems absurd now

But in a year - left unchallenged - that will be a debatable point. We must aggressively challenge complete fabrications like this.

[vlyons]

35. She might have something there -- in a way

Perhaps Trump thought that some middle-east chaos would shift the conversation away from impeachment

[rockfordfile]

36. Her father is a un-American war criminal. He created the middle east mess

From Cheney to Bushco. Cheney is a idiot.

[keithbvadu2]

37. How can she see and speak with her head so deep?

[IronLionZion]

39. Mental illness is often hereditary

she gets it from her supervillain father

[Politicub]

40. Geez - what a loon.

All of the Cheneys are evil cowards, but Liz also has a distinctive patina of bonkers.

[RockRaven]

42. Accidental confession? Trump gave Erdogan the green light to do this to distract from impeachment?

[moreland01]

43. I've always had reading comprehension problems,

but it sounds like Liz is saying that trump is so weak that other countries don't fear him or the U.S. He's so weak that we better get him out of there post haste and find someone stronger.

[True Blue American]

45. No,

Your reading comprehensions are just fine!

[True Blue American]

44. Liz needs to shut

Her big, fat traitorous mouth! We would not be in this war if her Father had not lied.

That whole stinking family needs to go!

[The Liberal Lion]

46. Well this is interesting

Because Liz was one of the first Nazis (FKA GOP politicians) to chastise trump for pulling the troops out of Syria. I would say this is clearest indication yet that once the House impeaches trump the Senate will not vote to convict. And friends and neighbors if the Senate does not vote to convict there either will not be an election because some national emergency will be declared "delaying" them, or vote totals will be compromised if an election even does take place.

[Nac Mac Feegle]

47. I seem to remember

That they used to call themselves "The party of personal responsibility"

[keithbvadu2]

48. Liz, it's not the democrats but Trump who runs away so fast that they leave valuable ISIS fighters b

Liz, it's not the democrats but Trump who runs away so fast that they leave valuable ISIS fighters behind.

[Brainfodder]

49. New talking point/orders email?

What a joke, they really are dumb SOBs for thinking this would fly?

Lying is all they have, this is going to get worse.

BUT.....

TREASON... it is still a thing, right?

[Catch2.2]

50. She is as batshit crazy

as the rest of them!

[sakabatou]

51. WTF?

[GemDigger]

53. A man who has no self control just did a "I'll fix you" because he is pissed that we are finding out

he is a corrupted, colluded, illegitimate fraud.

[patphil]

54. In the immortal words of Forrest Gump:

Stupid is as stupid does.

And, Ron White: You can't fix stupid.

Liz Cheney is so very much beyond repair.
A low IQ version of her despicable father.

[Eyeball_Kid]

55. Are Liz Cheney and KellyAnn Conway dating?

Or is Sarah Palin a better match?

[rzemanfl]

59. Is your thing giving people thoughts

that make them want to pluck out their eyeballs?

[truthisfreedom]

56. Oh ms Cheney! It's the president who's committed the impeachable offenses!

The Democratic Party didn’t twist his arm! He’s just an impeachable guy!

[BHDem53]

60. Like daddy, like daughter.

A chip off of the evil old block.

[YOHABLO]

61. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree does it? She's disgusting.

[DaDeacon]

62. With all due respect...

Stupid b*tch shut the f*ck up!!!

[mahina]

63. Sometimes I think none of them studied logic, other times I think they did and are using

Logical fallacy to persuade with cynicism.

Correlation is not causation lady.

[MFGsunny]

64. STUPID truly is as stupid does. Liz Cheney, poster child applicant right there. n/t

[Maxheader]

65. Wealth and bad genes...

gives us people that see things differently... wonder what old
dick and her saw in each other?

[treestar]

68. Interesting these things don't happen

when Democrats are impeached. Seriously, they seem to be indicating that it is wrong to impeach Dump no matter what he does. How childish.

[NurseJackie]

69. Oh, honey...

[Cha]

70. Oh FO, Cheney.. did fucking Turkey tell you that?

[RhodeIslandOne]

71. She's not wrong

Manbaby threw a shit fit and "Look at that shiny object over there!"

[Skittles]

74. yes but

she is blaming DEMS because she is a partisan hack

[tavernier]

72. "Weaken this president."

...???????

Not sure what she is talking about since no one has occupied that chair in several years.

[Yeehah]

73. They know how stupid the bumpkins are.

Really, really stupid.

[dalton99a]

75. The evilness is visible

[JDC]

76. She's the angrier, more evil version of Michelle Bachman

outlandish, bombastic BS is her only talent
