“You’ve got those that want to take a very hard stance to the right, and those that are more moderate and want to be more inclusive, the Big Tent Republicans, and now you’re seeing that competition rear its ugly head,” Troy Thompson, a veterinarian, and Laramie County commissioner who’s politically active, told Insider.

Despite Trump’s full-fledged efforts to oust her from Congress, Cheney — a member of Wyoming political royalty — still commands lots of respect in the Cowboy State. Her supporters, decrying Trump’s antics, say their voice exists and has so far gone unheard.

“The people who hate Liz Cheney will gladly stand at their pulpit and scream it to the ends of the world,” Landon Brown, a state lawmaker who supports Cheney, told Insider.

“I’m not positive if that’s the case, but I certainly feel that we have a silent majority that is not as loud and not as vocal as what you see with the Trump supporters,” he continued. “And just because they’re loud does not mean that they’re the most prominent. And I do believe when it comes to Liz Cheney and the rest of the Republican Party, there’s gonna be some pretty damning upsets.”
