I'm feeling like he's the last person I want to hear testimony from.

Apart from his bizarre cult-like worship of Trump, he lies. and continues to cover for him.

Why waste a nano-second on anything he has to say?

Unless Cheney is attempting to resusitate his political future, possibly to join in a campaign for the Presidential race in 2024 by helping to make him look honorable, principled, decent, brave and "Presidential" .

I'll pass on that prospect. thanks but no thanks.

that will only happen if he accepts the obvious...he will never be president...and if and when that happens, he has to ditch his hero halo and cut Trump's balls off and tell he real truth even if he self-implicates and that takes guts..(and we all know how brave Mike Pence was (still is) as Trump's brain-dead salivating cheerleader) so "signals openness" will more than likely turn into "my lawyers have serious concerns" (a la Ginni Thomas)
