Republican Rep. Liz Cheney (Wyo.) in a new interview said a number of GOP lawmakers have privately encouraged her high-profile fight against former President Trump.
Cheney — during an interview with Lesley Stahl on CBS’s “60 Minutes” that is airing on Sunday — said GOP senators and House members have secretly encouraged her anti-Trump efforts.
“Have members of Congress, Republicans, come up to you privately and whispered in your ear, ‘Way to go, Liz’ and encouraged you but won’t come forward and say that publicly?” Stahl asked Cheney.
