Is it me? Or do the Lincoln Project dudes care more about Democrats than actual Democrats?

They don't care about Dems. They want Trump out. They've had good ads. They've had dud ads. Trump gives soooo much material its hard not to be able to dole out content.

The day that fool is out of the WH, they'll try to go back to the GOP and oppose Biden's 'socialism'. Lincoln Project has been a big windfall for their board members who are getting paid.

Leave Lincoln Out of It

The project’s board of advisers includes a few figures who might be described as “famous for Washington”—and famous for doing the things that all professional Washington operatives do. In a report last month, the Center for Responsive Politics, a campaign-finance watchdog group, wrote that the Lincoln Project is engaging in practices similar to those of pro-Trump PACs.

“The Republican super PAC has amassed a substantial war chest,” the report said, “but it has come under scrutiny for funneling money to its advisory board members and spending relatively little airing political ads to influence voters. The group also hides some of its vendors by stealthily paying subcontractors, making it difficult to follow the money. The Lincoln Project reported spending nearly $1.4 million through March. Almost all of that money went to the group’s board members and firms run by them.”
​

This is, indeed, similar to what all PACs have done from the day of their invention.

Who are these swamp creatures? The political consultant Steve Schmidt guided John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign to a thunderous loss, and then quickly repaid his old boss by relating unflattering confidences to the authors of a gossipy campaign book. (The book’s depiction of Schmidt, by contrast, was highly favorable.) Another political consultant, Rick Wilson, was the creator of a campaign ad questioning the patriotism of Democratic Senator Max Cleland, a Vietnam veteran and a triple amputee; McCain called the ad “reprehensible,” and most Republicans agreed.

George Conway, another project adviser, was for decades a well-connected stalwart of the further reaches of the conservative movement, where he met and married Kellyanne Conway, now a counselor to Trump. More recently he has drawn attention not only as an energetic anti-Trump activist but also as one-half of the most mysterious marriage in American history. The political consultant John Weaver is known for directing McCain’s first losing presidential campaign, in 2000, after which he went to work for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. (He gingerly returned to the GOP fold by signing on to the fugitive presidential campaigns of Jon Huntsman and John Kasich, in 2012 and 2016, respectively.)

Dems go with their polls and consultants giving them advice... they are always gun shy.

 

And governing

 

They definitely wield power more than Dems. For big business. For wars. The social conservative culture wars.

They also suck at governing though. I’m still surprised they didn’t eliminate the filibuster when Trump was kicking and screaming for McConnell to do it.
