But while Cheney was unseated, her primary loss is unlikely to be the deathblow that the former president is hoping it will be. Republican strategist Alex Patton told Newsweek that the loss elevates Cheney to the "bonafide leader of the resistance" while also raising her national profile.

Republican strategist Jay Townsend told Newsweek that Cheney's courage to break away from the pack has helped her stand out "in the ocean of cowards populating the Republican caucus in Congress." He said that regardless of Tuesday's defeat, "history will someday regard her as one of the greatest heroes of our time" and that she'll be remembered for her conviction in refusing to back down to Trump and his congressional loyalists.
