Dick Cheney's endorsement of Kamala Harris seems to frame an unprecedented threat in Trump, but his own legacy of war and instability complicates this image.
Cheney's support for Harris during a turbulent political climate is not a principled stand but rather a historical irony, given his role in destabilizing global politics.
Harris embracing Cheney's endorsement reveals a troubling moral clarity dilemma, as his policies during the Iraq War directly conflict with the values she seeks to project.
Remembering Cheney as a defender of democracy overlooks his architect role in disastrous policies, including misleading war interventionism and the consequent humanitarian costs.
