‘Fox & Friends’: Donald Trump doesn’t really want Liz Cheney dead

The crybabies in the f— your feelings crowd, who still have their panties in a bunch over President Biden calling them “garbage,” are rushing to shrug their shoulders over Donald Trump wanting Liz Cheney to face down “nine barrels.”

“She’s a radical warhawk. Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK. Let’s see how she feels about it, you know, when the guns are trained on her face,” Trump said at a Thursday event in Arizona hosted by Tucker Carlson, who is totally not weird for claiming in an upcoming documentary that he was “physically mauled” by demons while in his bed asleep.

I wish I was making that up about Carlson, but, no.

So, we had Trump, calling Cheney, a Republican who is backing Kamala Harris, “stupid” and “a very dumb individual,” in a conversation with Carlson, who claims to have still-visible scars from this phantom overnight demon attack, both fever-dreaming about putting a political rival in the middle of a firefight.

And Trumpers are out running around wearing trash bags, because that’s how dumb this all is.

“This is how dictators destroy free nations. They threaten those who speak against them with death,” Cheney wrote on social media following the death wish from the ex-president. “We cannot entrust our country and our freedom to a petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant.”

The response from Trump’s favorite TV show, “Fox & Friends,” on Friday was the predictable, He didn’t really mean it.

“He was just talking about how she is a warhawk, and would you have the same point of view if she was actually at war?” co-host Brian Kilmeade said.

Now, one doesn’t have to strain too hard to imagine Kilmeade’s response if it was Cheney musing out loud about the chickenhawk Donald Trump, whose father, Fred, paid two doctors to claim that his fragile Donnie couldn’t serve in the military in Vietnam because he had bone spurs, having to face down “nine barrels.”

“There’s a ton of Americans that support this point of view,” co-host Lawrence Jones said, “this point of view” being, presumably, that political leaders without a military background shouldn’t send troops into battle.

Seriously, Lawrence?

Think this stuff through before you say it out loud.

Your guy thinks STDs were his “personal Vietnam.”

“I do think that is ironic right now when the Democratic Party is dealing with all these comments from the surrogate that they’re trying to grasp for something from the former president to say he’s calling for the assassination of, listen, I don’t think anyone really believes so,” Jones said.

So, let’s give Ex-President Bone Spurs a rifle to stand alongside Liz Cheney with nine barrels shooting at the both of them, then, right?

Just sayin’, but my money would be on Liz Cheney to be the one of the two of them to walk out of that one in one piece, if just judging by the fact that she’s the daughter of Dick Cheney, and we all remember what a crack shot he was.
