[QUOTE="Grant Jennings, post: 271122, member: 746"] I've never subscribed to the belief that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". Are they someone who can be of use to you, a momentary ally? Of course, but I would never call them "friend". I think Democrats should be cautious about becoming too friendly with the likes of Liz Cheney, Mitt Romney, Adam Kinzinger or the Lincoln Project. The anti-Trump Republicans will waste no time going back to fighting against Democrats once Trump is dead, imprisoned, etc. I find Liz Cheney to be especially troublesome. I remember when Lynne Cheney, Liz's mother, would go on [I]Crossfire[/I] spewing vile homophobic rhetoric in the guise of "family values". Then Lynne Cheney stopped. Lynne Cheney didn't appear on television as frequently and when she did she wasn't spouting anti-gay hate-speech. I later learned that Lynne's daughter, Mary, came out as a lesbian. I've found this to be typical of Republicans; their capacity for empathy only extends as far as their nuclear family. Liz isn't like her mother, she never espoused the same anti-gay rhetoric but she also didn't change her stance on gay rights. Liz has opposed gay rights throughout her career. In her campaign for the Senate in 2013 Liz stated her opposition to marriage equality; her parents supported her candidacy as well as her stance of marriage equality - despite the clear message it sent to Mary. So much for empathy. [/QUOTE]
