President Donald Trump on Thursday joined in the attacks on Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., saying the third-ranking House leader is “only upset” because he has been trying to end U.S. involvement in wars overseas
WASHINGTON — .
Moments later, he retweeted a pair of posts from earlier this week that were critical of Cheney, including one from Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., who said she should either resign as chairwoman of the House Republican Conference or be removed because she has questioned some Trump administration policies. The president's tweets Thursday come two days after several members of the conservative House Freedom Caucus as well as Gaetz, who is not a member of the caucus but is closely aligned with Trump, lashed out at her during a closed-door meeting with the House GOP Conference because of her public support for Dr. Anthony Fauci and for backing the primary opponent of Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., who ultimately won the race in June.
