BREAKING: Republican Liz Cheney releases a BRUTAL attack ad against Donald Trump, calling him a "a risk America can never take again" in a video that is sure to infuriate the disgraced former president.
She points out that he is the "only president in American history" to refuse the "peaceful transition of power" and he "betrayed millions of Americans" by spreading the Big Lie after Joe Biden defeated him in 2020.
He watched on television as his Capitol insurrection unfolded and refused to take action to call off his supporters.
"There has never been a greater dereliction of duty by any president," says Cheney.
Retweet if you think that she absolutely nailed it!
