The daughter of Dick Cheney added to calls for her father’s former boss to publicly endorse the vice president.
Liz Cheney urged George W. Bush to endorse Kamala Harris for president, saying that she can’t explain why he hasn’t already said something.
While speaking with David Remnick at the New Yorker Festival on October 26, Cheney said: “I can’t explain why George W. Bush hasn’t spoken out, but I think it’s time, and I wish that he would.”
Cheney, the daughter of Bush’s vice president, Dick Cheney, has been a public surrogate for Harris throughout the election, being vocal about her belief that Republicans need to put “country over party”, in order to keep out Donald Trump.
Pressure has been mounting on Bush to make a public statement as several people personally and politically close to him have come out in support of Harris in the past month.
Dick Cheney endorsed Harris in September.
