Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) sparred with one another in television appearances this week, each saying that former President Trump “broke” the other.
Cruz appeared on Sean Hannity‘s Fox News show on Tuesday and said the Wyoming representative had “Trump derangement syndrome.”
“[I] think she falls into the category of people who Donald Trump just broke, just shattered,” Cruz said, according to Yahoo News.
“She hates Donald Trump so much that it just has overridden everything in her system. She’s lashing out at Trump and Republicans and everything, and she’s become a Democrat, and it’s sad to watch what has happened,” he added.
Cheney later responded, saying that Cruz was “desperate for political approval.”
“Trump broke Ted Cruz,” Cheney said in a clip aired on CNN. “A real man would be defending his wife, and his father and the Constitution.”
Trump made a series of personal attacks on Cruz’s family during the 2016 Republican presidential primary, suggesting that Cruz’s father was involved in the assassination of John F. Kennedy and posting an unflattering photo of Cruz’s wife, Heidi Cruz, on Twitter, alongside modeling photo of Melania Trump, writing: “No need to ‘spill the beans.’ The images are worth a thousand words.”
Cruz responded at the time: “Donald, you’re a sniveling coward, and leave Heidi the hell alone.”
However, after exiting the 2016 presidential primary, Cruz became a staunch defender of Trump during his time in the White House.
Cheney has faced mounting criticism from her party after she voted to impeach Trump for his role in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
The Wyoming Republican Party voted last week to no longer recognize her as a member of the GOP. In February, the same group voted to censure Cheney.
The representative will now face at least four Republican opponents in the 2022 primary election. One of her opponents, Wyoming attorney Harriet Hageman, has received Trump’s endorsement.

CHENEY isn’t a Real woman. She’s nothing more than a PARASITE in the state of WYOMING. And State of WY
don’t care for PARADISE’S in their State. And I’m glad the Republicans in the state of WY stuck to the Guns and Voted her out of the State Republican Party and would be GREAT if the Republicans voted her out of the Republican Party in Washington D.C.
I am from WYOMING and Liz Cheney is NOT MY REPRESTATIVE –should say she doesnt represent the average person and just like daddy –she doesnt care —

And POTUS Donald J. Trump did not Break Anything. Let Ms. CHENEY just go a head and change to the Party that this Country and the World Leadership are LAUGHING AT.
cheney is just a sore looser who is about to lose her job inwhich she was never good at.
Well, lizzie, as you know and seem to profess, in poliitics, especially campaigning, all things seem to be “allowed” – -especially unflattering comments about your opponents. In your case, you just like to attack and besmirch anything that doesn’t “flatter, or include” yourself. But I will tell you A REAL WOMAN, especially one in your position, would be standing up for, or defending HER COUNTRY. But of course, we understand, you would rather defend your husband’s ties to the Chinese communist party, because it effects your “personal wallet”. Good luck with that; once we rid ourselves of the illegal Chinese influence, you will be “history” too. Either that, or you and those like you, will be sitting GITMO, awaiting their treason tribunal.
Who is her husband and ow is he connected to China?
Cruz did what he had to do while running for President just like the feud between Harris and Biden during the debates when she attacked him. Liz Cheney is a loser that screwed her fellow Republicans like the turncoat she is. Her state has pulled the rug out from under her and that says a lot. RINO jerk!
Thank you Senator Chaney. You are a great senator that votes your conscience over party garbage. I hope you prevail in your next election run! God bless Liz, God bless the USA!!!
Yeah not going to happen, I think you’re the only one who would want this useless woman to win!
We will vote for Cheney out of her integrity and character. She won’t be bullied by backward idiots in this society. She has legions of upright citizens that will uphold the truth.
You apparently wouldn’t know integrity or character if it kicked you in the head.
What is a democrat traitor doing on this site defending another traitor, Cheney? What does she have on you that would cause you to take her side in this fight between parties?
Well Said!!!!!
Old Liz Cheney wouldn’t have a clue what a real man is since no real man would want that nasty two faced pos!
Cheney there are formidable women and then there are C—s! You are far from a lady and you have your head so far up your butt with TDS you are absolutely worthless to the Republicans. You mentions you were going to try everything to keep Trump out of the oval office. You aren’t going to get any role with the Republicans. We will keep you out!
The only way you will stay in government is sleeping with Pelosi and the Dems. They will take you in, miery loves company. Trash is as trash does!
Liz is so unaware that she has gone “ blue”, she is truly a Democrat in a republican’s mask. Time for ger to go now. We don’t need rino traitors mucking up the works!
A real woman her age would have a husband.
