During a recent interview on CNN, Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) was praised for offering a brilliant rebuttal to critical comments former Republican Vice President Dick Cheney made about Donald Trump being the most significant “threat to our Republic” in the nation’s history. Donalds shut down the CNN host, blasting the idea that Trump is the actual threat threat to the country.
The host introduced the topic, stating, “Here’s, in part, what he said, quote, in our nation’s 248 year history, there’s never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump. What would you say to Vice President Chene in response to that?”
Donalds fired back, “My first response is, I really don’t care what he thinks. Secondarily, if you look at the way Kamala Harris and Joe Biden have led the current administration, they suppressed the free speech of the American people.” Continuing, he called out the Biden-Harris administration for misleading the American people.
Doing so, Donalds stated, “It was the Biden campaign that lied to the world during the last presidential election, using the intelligence agencies and 51 intelligence officers to lie about the laptop from hell. That’s something the Biden campaign did. They lied about the all the impacts using the COVID 19 vaccine.”
The Florida Republican further pointed out, “They tried to use OSHA to mandate 80 million Americans getting that vaccine. They fired over 10,000 soldiers from our military over the same situation. And right now we have a situation where Kamala Harris has lied to the world about the health and mental capabilities of Joe Biden.”
Donalds concluded his argument, asserting that, all things considered, it would appear that Democrats are the actual threat to democracy, contrary to what they have claimed about Trump. “So you put all that together, and then you have this statement from Dick Cheney. I’m look at what’s actually been happening with Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, and the threat they are to democracy, not what Dick Cheney saying,” he said.
Users on s social media reacted to Donalds comments, praising his handling of the CNN interview. one person said, “Byron Donalds appears on CNN (Communist News Network) and exposes the war monger and corrupt globalist better known as DICK Cheney. “That’s how you do it,” another person chimed in, applauding Donalds for his response to Cheney’s criticism of former President Trump.
Demonstrating that Republican voters are done with the establishment politics of the past couple of decades, another person said, “Dick is simply endorsing who will be the most beneficial $$$ for him. The con these players are trying to pull off on the American people is next level… Stop this nonsense, vote!” Another person wrote, “I am really liking the fighting stance of the “new” Republican Party. No longer willing to simply roll over. And not afraid to go into the lions den to fight. The GOPe is simply no longer relevant.”
