Donald Trump criticized Liz Cheney on Thursday, calling her a "radical war hawk." He imagined a violent scenario where guns were aimed at her, suggesting she would feel differently about war if faced with such a situation. Trump's comments were made during a visit to a tour stop in Glendale, Arizona. He also referenced his past pardon of Scooter Libby, the former chief of staff to Cheney's father, Dick Cheney, and described Cheney as "very dumb." This incident follows a pattern of Trump using violent imagery in his rhetoric. Recently, he also made comments about Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene in a similarly graphic manner.
