Liz Cheney, Former Trump Aides To Campaign In Montgomery County

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, PA — Former Congresswoman and prominent Republican Liz Cheney will campaign for Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris at an upcoming event in Montgomery County, organizers said.

Cheney will be joined by three prominent aides of former President Donald Trump, including Cassidy Hutchinson, Alyssa Farah Griffin, and Sarah Matthews. All have announced their support for Harris.

The exact location of the event, described as a "chat" between the four women, has not yet been announced, beyond that it is within the borders of Montgomery County. It will take place on Wednesday, Oct. 9.

It's organized by the super-PAC Democracy First.

Cheney, the daughter of former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, represented Wyoming in U.S. Congress for years before being ousted in the Republican primary in 2022 over her denunciation of Trump. She has become one of the most vocal figures in the establishment wing of the Republican Party to stand against Trump.

Cheney has been adamant that she remains a "Reagan Republican." So has Hutchinson.

"Policy is important," Hutchinson told MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell. "It's very important to me, and there may be few issues that Kamala Harris and I would see eye to eye on. I hope that we would be able to come to consensus on a lot more issues, but in saying that, the character of our leaders really matters, too… Donald Trump and JD Vance cannot be trusted with the Constitution."

Harris and Trump are dead even in the battleground of Pennsylvania, according to the latest aggregate of polls from RealClearPolitics. Harris leads by two points nationally, though it's far short of the pollings leads that Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden held before the very close elections in 2016 and 2020, respectively.
