Read our privacy policy Donald Trump is reportedly focusing his energy now he has left the White House on targeting Wyoming representative Liz Cheney after she voted to impeach him earlier this month. Ms Cheney, the number third-ranking Republican in the House of Representatives, was among 10 Republicans who voted for Mr Trump’s impeachment on 13 January for inciting the Capitol riots on 6 January. At one point, Mr Trump Jr took aim at Ms Cheney’s father, saying: “It seems like Liz Cheney's favourables are only slightly worse than her father's shooting skills.” Mr Trump Jr was seemingly referring to a non-fatal incident in 2006, when Mr Cheney accidentally shot a man while quail hunting. “You can send a representative who actually represents you, and you can send Liz Cheney home - back home to Washington, DC.” Although House minority leader Kevin McCarthy criticised Mr Trump for his role in inciting the Capitol riots earlier this month, he met with the former president at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida on Thursday, according to CNN.
