Dick Cheney in January 6 Capitol Riot

On Principles & Values: Disappointed we don't have better leadership in GOP

Asked why he came to the Capitol, Cheney said, "It's an important historical event. You can't overestimate how important it is." He added, "I'm deeply disappointed we don't have better leadership in the Republican Party to restore the Constitution."

When asked for his reaction to Republican leadership's handling of this day, Cheney -- not one to mince words -- said, "Well, it's not a leadership that resembles any of the folks that I knew when I was here for 10 years -- dramatically."
