Liz Cheney on why she believes Trump's reelection would mean the end of our republic
CBSN
How do you sound the alarm when people have gotten used to the ringing? That is the challenge for former Congresswoman Liz Cheney, who has had to update even her sense of alarm as Donald Trump's effort to overthrow the last election has not stopped him from becoming the GOP presidential favorite; as an election denier has become Speaker of the House; and as prominent Republicans have come to embrace election conspiracies as the route to political glory.

After losing her 2022 Republican primary, Cheney traded the U.S. Capitol dome for the Thomas Jefferson-designed Rotunda at the University of Virginia, where she has been lecturing on politics, and writing a new book, "Oath and Honor: A Memoir and a Warning" (to be published Tuesday by Little, Brown).
Dickerson asked Cheney if she looks at politics differently today: "Do you say, you know, 'We spend a lot of time demonizing the other side, which put all of our supporters in the mindset of, You know what? They're not just wrong, they're evil'?"
