Dick Cheney put a campaign ad for his daughter's congressional campaign in front of many people on social media. It is a risky move since a poll shows that Hageman is ahead of Cheney a month before the primary. In the ad, Dick Cheney says that Trump is the greatest threat to the republic because he tried to steal the last election using lies and violence to stay in power after the voters had rejected him. It gets worse. ″[Trump] is a coward. A real man wouldn’t lie to his supporters. He lost his election, and he lost big. I know it, he knows it and deep down I think most Republicans know it.” The full ad can be seen below. Some people felt weird agreeing with the former vice president who has been accused of being a war criminal for his pro-torture actions during the war in Iraq. If you had told me in 2000 that I would ever utter the words "I agree with Dick Cheney" I would have punched you in the dick. But here we are. https://t.co/D3bCj2v2Tw

Some have said that if Satan criticized Donald Trump, his approval would go up. Now with Dick Cheney, we can really test that theory. https://t.co/TWXL5gqunS

Dick Cheney as VP was the chief advocate of the disastrous war in Iraq that killed up to a million people, unconstitutional government surveillance programs, torture, and many other horrific policies.
He should have no standing to accuse anyone of being a threat to our Republic. https://t.co/hTLHi5GBxf

Never in my lifetime have I seen a former vice president repudiate and denounce a former president of the same party.
With Dick Cheney’s announcement, the Republican Party is now engaged in an all-out civil war. https://t.co/tTUMfR5er9

I’d rather hear Dick Cheney admit that Trump is the inevitable reaping for what he himself sowed — incessant lies and gross abuses of power. https://t.co/Va3b3C7E8g

Dick Cheney is a terrible man who is absolutely correct in calling out Trump for being a terrible president and an enduring threat to our country.

Dick Cheney lied us into an illegal war as he pilfered billions through Halliburton. He's not really the best spokesman for standing up against Trump. https://t.co/ePFhGwRUOM
