 lashed out at  Rep.
Liz Cheney following her massive primary loss Tuesday, going so far as to tell the lifelong political scion that she 'should be ashamed of herself' for her campaign performance.
Cheney lost to Trump's hand-selected challenger Harriet Hageman, pinfaves.com who was previously a candidate for the 2018 Wyoming gubernatorial election and a former friend of Cheney's who even worked on her 2014 US Senate campaign.
Trump celebrated the news in a late-night Truth Social post, gleefully stating his hopes that she 'will finally disappear into the depths of political oblivion.'
The former President also called Cheney's 30-point loss on Tuesday a 'complete rebuke of the Unselect Committee of political Hacks and Thugs,' referring to the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 Capitol riot and its members.
He also declared Cheney's involvement in the investigation 'spiteful and sanctimonious' and signed off the post, saying: 'Thank you Wyoming!'
 Donald Trump slammed Rep.

Liz Cheney's loss - as he had made the impeachment backer and January 6 committee member his No. 1 2022 target to take out. The former president said Dick Cheney's daughter 'should be ashamed of herself, the way she acted, and her spiteful, sanctimonious words and actions towards other.
Now she can finally disappear into the depths of political oblivion where, I am sure, sh ewill be much happier than she is right now.'

Liz Cheney said Tuesday night that she called and conceded the Wyoming primary race to the Trump-backed Harriet Hageman

In a concession speech in Jackson, Cheney made comparisons to President Abraham Lincoln, who lost a string of races before winning the White House.  
'Abraham Lincoln was defeated in elections for the Senate and House before he won the most important election of all,' Cheney noted. 
Cheney spoke about how she had won her primary two years ago by more than 70 points.  
'I could easily have done the same again - the path was clear,' she said. 
All she had to do, she said, was peddle former President Donald Trump's election fraud lies and enable his attacks on the democratic system. 
'That is a path I could not and would not take,' Cheney said. 
'This is not a game,' Cheney warned.

Everyone of us must be committed to the eternal defense of this miraculous experiment called America,' she said. 
Following her concession speech where she compared herself to Abraham Lincoln, Trump ripped Cheney apart once more on Truth, calling her a 'fool who played right into the hands of those want to destroy our Country!'
After her speech, Trump made sure he was in Cheney's rear mirror, posting on Truth: 'Liz Cheney's uninspiring concession speech, in front of a "tiny" crowd in the Great State of Wyoming, focused on her belief that the 2020 Presidential Election was not, despite massive and conclusive evidence to the contrary, Rigged & Stolen.'
'It was, and that's not even counting the fact that many election changes, in numerous States, were not approved by State Legislatures, an absolute must.

Liz Cheney is a fool who played right into the hands of those who want to destroy our Country!,' the former president further wrote.
Speaking to supporters at the Cheyenne Frontier Days Event Center, Hageman characterized her win as an effort to 'dislodge entrenched politicians' from Washington, D.C.'s 'uni-party - those Democrats and Republicans who don't really care which party is in power, just as long as they are.' 
'Wyoming has put the elites on notice,' Hageman said, adding that if you want to represent the Cowboy State, 'you damn better well live in Wyoming.'

Rep.

Liz Cheney told supporters she had called Harriet Hageman and conceded as the race was being called, making the point that part of American democracy is accepting 'honorably' election results


It was obvious from early returns from the ultra-red state that Cheney was toast. 
She first trailed Hageman by nine points - and then by 25. When NBC News and other outlets started calling the race for Hageman, Cheney was behind by more than 30.  
At the top of her concession speech, Cheney informed her supporters that she had called Hageman and  conceded the race - making the point that part of American democracy is accepting 'honorably' election results. 
Hageman's supporters - a number of them sporting cowboy hats - gathered around barrels decorated with cowhides and lassos munching on charcuterie platters or waiting for drinks at corner bar as Tucker Carlson's  program played on large TVs. 
At one point, Another One Bites the Dust, played loudly. The crowd cheered when favorable returns were shown on the TVs. 
Hageman appeared at the podium before Cheney had completed speaking. 
'Today, Wyoming has spoken,' she said.

'Today we have succeeded at what we set out to do - we have reclaimed Wyoming's lone Congressional seat for Wyoming.' 
She thanked Trump for his early support - and used his trademark Apprentice line. 
'If we put you in power you will be accountable ...
you will answer to us,' she said. 'And if you don't, we will fire you.'  
Earlier Tuesday in Jackson, Cheney brought along her famous father, former Vice President Dick Cheney, to a polling place. 
He and Lynne Cheney sat front row during her concession speech.  
'We're facing a moment where our democracy really is under attack and under threat,' Cheney told CBS News before going into vote. 
The threat, of course, being Trump. 
'And those of us across the board - Republicans, Democrats and independents - who believe deeply in freedom and who care about the Constitution and the future of the country, I think have an obligation to put that above party,' she said. 
She also said that 'no matter what the outcome is' the 'fight is cleary going to continue,' suggesting that while she may lose Tuesday night, her political career wasn't over. 
'Proud to cast my ballot today.

The challenges we are facing require serious leaders who will abide by their oath and uphold the Constitution - no matter what,' she later tweeted.

Wyoming Republicans DailyMail.com spoke to Tuesday outside Cheyenne's historic Storey Gymnasium had all voted for Hageman - with a lone Democrat saying he chose to stick with his party, and not cross over to bolster Cheney's chances. 
Wyoming voters can switch political parties the day of the election. They can also vote at any polling place, but have to show identification. 
'Well first of all she should represent her constituents, and she's not clearly - because that's why she's getting voted out - but secondly here's the reality, she didn't grow up in Wyoming,' said 58-year-old Cheyenne resident Roger Forystek, who works in insurance. 
Thanks to her father's political career, Cheney split her time between Casper and Washington, D.C.  
'And furthermore, she's kind of a spoiled brat, in my opinion. She's a spoiled brat.

She's so used to getting her way, when she doesn't, she's throwing a tantrum,' Forystek added.

A hand-painted sign in Casper, Wyoming that stan Tacy West, a 77-year-old from Cheyenne, had an even harsher take. 
'She comes from a crime family.

It's well known that her father was a leading pedophile,' West told DailyMail.com.
There's no factual basis behind West's comment - Dick Cheney has never been accused of pedophilia.

'She acts crazy. You look at her eyes and she's not there,' West added. 
A local pastor, who asked not to be named because of his line of work, told DailyMail.com that his vote for Hageman 'was moreso to spank Cheney.' 
'She's being sent to the principal's office,' he said. 
Cheney has become the most prominent House Republican critic of Trump - currently serving as vice-chair of the House select committee on January 6.
She's paid a price - losing her No.

3 leadership position in the House Republican Conference and was expelled by Wyoming's Republican Party, as the state's voters in 2020 had voted Trump over President Joe Biden by about 43 points.  
The daughter of the former Republican vice president has remained steadfast in her criticism, saying in  that her party's embrace of Trump's 'big lie' - his false claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him - is a 'cancer.' 
'The lie that the 2020 presidential election was stolen is insidious,' she said in the video. 
She added that the false claims are a 'door Donald Trump opened to manipulate Americans to abandon their principles, to sacrifice their freedom to justify violence, to ignore the rulings of our courts and the rule of law.' 
For 20-year-old University of Wyoming student Abby Humble, who backed Hageman, it's not the substance - but Cheney's style. 
'I don't disagree with what she did, I think she was just trying to defend the Constitution,' Humble told DailyMail.com.

'But at the same time, I don't really think that's what the people of Wyoming wanted ... because a lot of them are, you know, Trump supporters.'
