I'm no fan of her politics but she stands for truth and justice?!! She has creditability were as Trump and his political endorsements have none?!! If she loses her seat in congress, I hope she runs for president if Trump decides to run?!!

To paraphrase her at one point, she says to the effect that, 'questioning the validity of an election destroys free nations,' I'd ask her Which ones would those be?

So, questioning their elections made them into dictatorships hum? I'd say they and other nations like Venezuela, Nicaragua, Mexico under PRI, to name a few, all had their elections questioned continuously and it was an in place dictatorship that kept them from having fair and open elections. Liz Cheney has it backwards. Trump questioning an election isn't the threat. The threat is having questionable practices during an election. If you eliminate questionable practices, you eliminate people questioning the election.
She's an idiot.

She wasn't taking about Cuba.
She literally said she was talking about free nations
When Russia had it's first free and fair election in 1917, the Bolsheviks lost decisively and decided they didn't like the result. So they forcibly disbanded the Constituent Assembly, Russia's first truly democratic legislature.
You are wrong...
A good portion of the US population questions the use of:
All mail-in balloting
Same day voter registration
Automatic voter registration upon getting a driver's license
Registering 16 and 17-year-olds to vote and then saying they can't until they're 18
Using ballot drop boxes
No voter ID requirements
No purging of voter rolls
Not allowing poll watchers free access to observe the process
Those are all questionable practices, and there are more. I'll say it again: If questionable practices are used in an election, then the election is questionable. If you want elections to not be questioned, eliminate questionable practices to the greatest extent possible.
