A top Republican senator has proclaimed there are “not enough Democrats” to help Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) win the GOP primary in August.

Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), a member of the GOP leadership in the Senate, told Fox News on Sunday that Cheney’s attacks against former President Donald Trump and her decision to serve as vice-chair on the Democrat-controlled House subcommittee probing the Jan. 6 Capitol incident will cause her significant trouble in her home state. She also voted to impeach Trump in his second trial, which prompted the Wyoming Republican Party to censure her before voting to stop recognizing her as a member.
