Dick Cheney, the former vice president who served for two terms under former President George W. Bush, is hardly a person whose opinion should hold much weight these days, given his role in pushing the U.S. into a long and unnecessary war against Iraq, among other problematic parts of his lengthy, far-right political career.
The guy's a bum, as far as I'm concerned.
But it says something about the current state of the Republican Party when even Cheney — Darth Vader himself — cannot vote for the GOP's current nominee for president, Donald Trump.
Mark Leibovich, staff writer for The Atlantic: "Dick Cheney, your father...do you know who he will be supporting or who he will be voting for?"
Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyoming): "Dick Cheney will be voting for Kamala Harris."
Leibovich: "Wow. Words I never expected to hear."
