RINO Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) has attacked President Donald Trump as "dangerous and irrational" while accusing him of being a "domestic threat."
"Republican" Cheney lambasted Trump and his supporters in the GOP during a Tuesday speech at St. Anselm College in New Hampshire.
The Wyoming congresswoman accused Trump of working against the Constitution and the rule of law.
"At this moment when it matters most, we are also confronting a domestic threat that we've never faced before: a former president who's attempting to unravel the foundations of our constitutional Republic, aided by political leaders who have made themselves willing hostages to this dangerous and irrational man," said Cheney.
Cheney was among ten Republicans who voted to impeach Trump during the second impeachment on charges alleging he incited an "insurrection" at the U.S. Capitol on January 6 when some of his supporters rioted.
She also attacked Trump for continuing to reject the official results of the presidential election.

"Political leaders who sit silent in the face of these false and dangerous claims are aiding a former president who is at war with the rule of law and the Constitution," Cheney continued.
"When our constitutional order is threatened as it is now, rising above partisanship is not simply an aspiration it is an obligation, an obligation of every one of us," she added.
Cheney went on to say that she disagrees with the policies of Democrat Joe Biden while enumerating the ideals of conservatism.
"His policies are bad for this country," she said.
"I believe deeply that conservative principles, limited government, low taxes, a strong national defense, the family, the family as the essential building block of our nation, and our society, those are the right ideals for this country."

"I love my party," Cheney added.
"I love its history, I love its principles.
"But I love my country more."
WATCH:
Trump has fired back at Cheney many times over her criticism and has even backed a primary challenger to her congressional seat in the 2022 midterm election.
Wyoming has only one at-large congressional district.
