The Cheneys' Father-Daugher event

Dick Cheney returns to the House and receives a warm welcome . . . from Democrats

Amazing! The man was a bastion of republican "Ethics" from the days of Reagan and the Bush folks. And now, the Rethuglicans shun him and his Daughter, current Wyoming Senator Liz Cheney when they visit Congress on the anniversary of the Jan 6 capitol "uprising."
The pair were applauded by Democrats.
How strange Politics can be, no?

From the article:
Former vice president Richard B. Cheney visited the House floor on Thursday and patiently waited to greet more than a dozen members waiting to shake his hand.

They were all Democrats.

The man who was once portrayed by the Democratic Party as the dark villain of the Bush administration, responsible for failed wars, ruinous energy policies and torturing America’s enemies in a betrayal of the nation’s values has found common ground with his onetime foes over Jan. 6.

Cheney and his daughter Rep. Liz Cheney (Wyo.) are among the few Republicans who have joined Democrats in condemning last year’s attack on the Capitol as an assault on democracy and blaming former president Donald Trump for that deadly day.

You are correct. he has long been an ass.
It's interesting to see the Democrats coming on to him, now. Something about "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." comes to mind.
Most of them are the old line Politicians that used to fight with him on the Senate floor.
He is one of the last of the old line GOP.
