“Cheney, of Wyoming, faces ouster from her No. 3 post in the House GOP leadership because she is an outspoken critic of former President Trump. Stefanik, a moderate-turned-Trump-stalwart from upstate New York, is jockeying to succeed her.”
“It is ironic that the power struggle centers on two women. Among the GOP’s biggest political problems has been the sparse presence of women in their congressional ranks and the stampede of female voters to the Democratic Party in the Trump era. Joe Biden won 57% of female voters in 2020, the largest share of any presidential candidate since at least 1980, according to exit poll data compiled by the Center for American Women and Politics.”
“The two congresswomen personify the choice now facing a Republican Party at a crossroads: Should it remain defined by Trump — embracing his provocative style and false claims about massive fraud in the 2020 election — or renounce him and recenter conservative orthodoxy that was eclipsed during his presidency?”

Like the GOP has shown any backbone in the last five years
