Donald Trump has faced criticism for suggesting former Republican Liz Cheney should face a firing squad over her foreign policy views. He called her a "very dumb individual" and a "radical war hawk" during a campaign event in Arizona. Cheney responded, labeling Trump a "petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man" and accused him of tyrannical behavior. She stated that such threats are tactics used by dictators to silence opposition. As the US presidential election approaches, both Trump and his opponent, Kamala Harris, are focusing on swing states like Wisconsin to secure votes.
