Some report the Cheney family hasn’t decided how to handle his remains, but may award Halliburton “a no-bid contract” for clean-up; his daughters, struggling with their loss, have taken to calling it “enhanced death.”

He was a bush era conservative, he hated Trump

None of the Bush era conservatives like trump because they were the ones controlling the Republican party when Trump took it over.

Now they're all dead or irrelevant. Romney was the last one and he decided to retire before he could die in office.

He hated Trump, but he is the progenitor of the "unitary executive theory" that has gotten us where we are today.

Sure but we were talking about Cheney's chubby relative to trump, not his damnation status.

Cheney was knocking on hell's door with a flaccid noodle because a notorious pedophile stole his legacy, dipped it in gold leaf and sold it to foreign powers.

He hated Trump but he’s one of the ghouls that pushed for the unitary executive theory which seeks to massively expand the president’s power. Trump is using the idea to create havoc and make himself a lot of money. Cheney would have used that idea to make himself a lot of money and to destabilize another poor country with natural resources.

Yeah but I don't think he died with a chub because trump stole it all out from under him.

He and McCain died punching air because they committed all the sins but got pushed aside before the big payout happened.

They hated trump because he stole what they made.

Actually, that makes perfect sense.

I hope they make his grave into a public toilet so every veteran and Iraqi citizen can shit and piss on it.
