Victory for Trump:
House of Representatives member Liz Cheney suffered a stinging defeat in the party's primary for representing the state of Wyoming in Congress.
Cheney, who has served in Congress for 5 years, received only 30 percent of the vote.
The one who beat Cheney was attorney Harriet Hageman, who was supported by Trump.
The loss means Cheney's removal from Congress in the "mid-term elections" to be held on November 8.
Wyoming is a state that traditionally leans Republican.
However, in the last polls conducted there, there was equality between the parties, so there is no certainty that Hagman will reach the House of Representatives instead of Cheney.
Discrimination stings.

Cheney, the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, was considered a rising star among Republicans.
She expressed right-wing and conservative positions on a long list of issues, including opposition to same-sex marriage.
However, she came out against Trump's claims of fraud in the 2020 election. Also, following the testimony heard by the committee to investigate the events of the invasion of Congress on January 6, 2021, she said that she would do everything "so that he does not return to the Oval Office."
Trump and his supporters launched a crushing attack against her and tonight, as mentioned, she lost her place in Congress.
