Liz Cheney
Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) recently suffered the indignity of being booted from her leadership position in the House Republicans for failing to heed House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.). The last thing the House GOP leader wants to do is to alienate Trump—and his most ardent supporters—again.
Cheney’s closest rival, state Rep. Chuck Gray brought in $220,000 in Q2 2021—less than 12% of Cheney’s haul in the same period. Despite an abysmal approval rating, the Wyoming Republican has a war chest approaching $3 million.
