Tucker Carlson in on that with Pelosi, IMO. Controlled opposition. Remember, Carlson knew Hunter Biden and then wife when they lived in the same DC neighborhood.
With Cheney, best move would have been to step aside. She must have been holding a big threat to make her double down and blow up her political career.
She didn't count on the Trump pubs holding the line, is my guess. Going with MTG here as the new face of the pub party. She has the complete package and people like what they see.
I think Stefanik will be a good leader, but is too cerebral to make the peeps connect. Not a knock. We all have different strengths.
