“When men and women in positions of public trust defend the indefensible, and make excuses for Donald Trump, they compromise the principles of our Democratic republic,” said Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) as she addressed the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol and Republican support for former President Donald Trump. Her comments came as she gave the annual Constitution Day lecture at the American Enterprise Institute. As she chastised members of her party for condemning law enforcement and the FBI, she touched on the top-secret documents found at President Trump’s estate in Florida, saying, “We are rendering indefensible conduct normal, legal, and appropriate, as though he were a king.” close
