2024 election updates: Trump attacks “war hawk” Liz Cheney with violent rhetoric

During a meeting with Tucker Carlson late Thursday in Arizona, Trump lashed out at former Rep. Liz Cheney.

“She is a radical war hawk,” Trump said as he accused her and her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney, of leading the United States into war in the Middle East.

“Let’s put them there with a gun that shoots at them with nine barrels,” Trump said, invoking violence against his opponents by suggesting that they were sending people to war without having any war experience themselves.

“Okay, let’s see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are pointed at their faces. You know, they're all warmongers when they sit in a nice building in Washington and say, 'Oh, my God, 'Will, let's send 10,000 troops right into the mouth of the enemy,'” Trump continued.

He also repeatedly called Cheney a “stupid” and “bad” person.
