What's next for Liz Cheney?

Amanpour

About this episode

It was a primary with immense ramifications for the future of the Republican Party, with the perils of crossing former President Trump on full display last night in the state of Wyoming. Liz Cheney was soundly defeated by the little known – but Trump-backed – candidate Harriet Hageman. Cheney had become a rare vocal critic of the former president within her own party and is a leading member of the House committee investigating the January 6 insurrection. Cheney says she is “thinking” about running in the 2024 presidential election, but where does her loss leave the GOP? Former Republican congressman Joe Walsh joins the show to discuss.  Also on today's show: Iran scholar Karim Sadjadpour; economist Vicky Pryce; CNN Chief Climate Correspondent Bill Weir; 17-year-old aviator Mack Rutherford, who's aiming to become the youngest person to fly solo around the world.
