On his own social medium, former President Trump Trump takes a hard line against Liz Cheney, deputy chair of the committee that is investigating his role in the storming of Congress on January 6 last year.
Trump calls the 55-year-old Republican representative “a repulsive person,” and calls her committee “false and unelected.”
He also goes against what he perceives as unbalanced media coverage, and attacks his former White House employee Cassidy Hutchinson as a “liar”.
– Dangerous
Cheney himself slammed the ex-president in an interview Sunday.
“A man as dangerous as Donald Trump can never come close to the Oval Office again,” she said.
The extensive hearing, in which a number of the former president’s current and former close associates have testified, may result in a recommendation that the Ministry of Justice open a criminal case against him.
Several, including Trump’s Attorney General William Barr, have explained that the ex-president spoke against his better judgment when he already declared on election night that the election winner had been “stolen” from him.
