Trump foe Liz Cheney's war chest comes almost entirely from outside Wyoming. Is that a bad sign?

Of the $6,834,174 large individual donors have given to Cheney from Jan. 1, 2021 through March 31, $255,086 – or only 3.7% – came from Wyoming donors, according to a USA TODAY analysis of campaign reports filed Friday with Federal Election Commission records.

Enjoy the inevitable L Liz

Do we haaaaate to see it or hate to see it?

Just serves to illustrate what a sham the system has become.

She doesn’t represent America first values and by all accounts, doesn’t represent Wyoming at all but still has accumulated a healthy war chest.

If her opponents are worth their salt, they'll hammer this point nonstop.

Unfortunately I can see her winning in November. Sore loser campaign like Murk.

If we assume the Democrats rally behind her and about 25% of Wyoming Republicans are cucked, she has a chance.

She's not representing Wyoming. She's representing the interests of the Deep State.

Companies should not be able to donate to politicians and only their constituents should be. Nothing will ever change my mind about that.

That's a Wyoming problem, even though it affects the entire nation.

It's either ~4% or <4% but it's not >4%.

IDK if this is a problem. If a good majority of people in Wyoming want her gone there is no amount of TV and Radio ads that will change their minds.
What the hell will the ads say?
'Vote for Liz Cheney! She stands up against Donald Trump!'

Probably a bunch of bullshite about outside interests trying to overrule Wyoming’s interests by removing her, ignoring that doing that shite is why Cheney is up shite creek.

40% will vote for her in the election, all Democrats, but she’ll mysteriously receive 70% of the vote.

Actually it did. Did he win? Nope. But that doesn't mean it didn't help. And winning isn't the only way camp. contribution help politicians aka scum of the earth.

the founding fathers had it correct originally:

State Legislatures appointed US Senators

it prevented the bribery and corruption of US Senators
