Leftist Arizona AG Drops Investigation Into Trump’s Comments on Liz Cheney
Another leftist prosecutor has backed down from investigating Trump after he won the presidential election in a landslide.
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes earlier this month announced an investigation into President Trump’s comments about toxic RINO Liz Cheney.
The fake news media pushed another hoax shortly before the election and claimed Trump said he wants Liz Cheney executed by firing squad.
President Trump sat down for an interview with Tucker Carlson a few days before the election and criticized Liz Cheney for wanting to send America’s sons to fight endless wars.
Trump did not say he wanted Liz Cheney executed by firing squad. He called her out for being a war hawk and supporting endless wars as long as she doesn’t have to be on the front lines in a bloody battle.
“I don’t blame [Dick Cheney] for sticking with his daughter, but his daughter is a very dumb individual, very dumb,” Trump said of Liz Cheney.
Trump continued, “She’s a radical war hawk. Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with 9 barrels shooting at her, okay? Let’s see how she feels about it. Let’s see how she feels about it when the guns are trained on her face You know, they’re all war hawks when they’re sitting in Washington in a nice building saying, ‘oh gee let’s send 10,000 troops right into the mouth of the enemy.”
In a Truth Social post, Trump defended his comment, stating:
“All I’m saying about Liz Cheney is that she is a War Hawk, and a dumb one at that, but she wouldn’t have “the guts” to fight herself. It’s easy for her to talk, sitting far from where the death scenes take place, but put a gun in her hand, and let her go fight, and she’ll say, “No thanks!” Her father decimated the Middle East, and other places, and got rich by doing so. He’s caused plenty of DEATH, and probably never even gave it a thought. That’s not what we want running our Country!”
During an interview earlier this month on “Sunday Square Off,” Mayes openly admitted that she has instructed her criminal division chief to scrutinize Trump’s words, stating, “I have already asked my criminal division chief to start looking at that statement, analyzing it for whether it qualifies as a death threat under Arizona’s laws.”
“I’m not prepared now to say whether it was or it wasn’t, but it is not helpful as we prepare for our election and as we try to make sure that we keep the peace at our polling places and in our state,” Mayes added, according to NBC.
Kris Mayes said her prosecutors determined Trump’s comments on Liz Cheney don’t meet the legal standard to be considered a threat.
