Donald Trump is so angry at being thrown off Twitter that he writes out insults in the hope allies will post them – and had seen deposing Liz Cheney as key to his political hold over the GOP
- Trump strategized from Mar-a-Lago about punishing Liz Cheney in advance of vote on her leadership vote
- She won by a lopsided margin despite the effort to depose her
