Donald Trump Sparks Controversy with Remarks about Liz Cheney and Guns
Trump's Provocative Remarks
Donald Trump stirred controversy on Thursday night during an interview with conservative host Tucker Carlson in Glendale, Arizona. He accused Liz Cheney of being a radical warmonger and mocked her by claiming, "Let’s put her rifle in hand against nine guns pointed at her. Let’s see what she thinks about that. You know, with guns pointed at her." This imagery was reminiscent of a firing squad.
Cheney Responds to Trump
Liz Cheney, who was part of the congressional committee investigating the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot, countered Trump’s allegations through a statement on X. She stated, "This is how dictators destroy free nations. They threaten those who speak unfavorably about them with death. We cannot entrust our country and our freedom to a small, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant." Jaime Harrison, the chairman of the Democratic Party, also reacted by labeling Donald Trump as a deranged, delusional, and dangerous individual.
