Lincoln Project co-founder refuses to apologize for trying to smear VA GOP gubernatorial candidat
2021-10-31
Response to yesterday’s events.
  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Five people holding tiki torches stood outside Glenn Youngkin campaign bus

  • They were in Charlottesville, in a deliberate echo of the August 2017 rally under the banner Unite The Right which saw neo-Nazis clash with counter-protesters

  • Stuart Stevens, co-founder of The Lincoln Project and former Republican strategist, defended the move to CNN's Chris Cuomo

  • 'Listen, every day I hear people pleading with the Lincoln Project to help show Democrats how to win, how to play hardball. You know, this is an example.'

  • The organization refused to apologize and suggested it would continue to show up until Youngkin disavowed former President Donald Trump

#10  The more they give to the “intellectuals” of the Lincoln Project, the less they have for projects that might actually achieve their goals.

#7  Billionaire Democratic donors give big to anti-Trump Lincoln Project
Billionaire investor Stephen Mandel — a longtime backer of Democratic groups — gave $1 million to The Lincoln Project last month. Bain Capital executive Joshua Bekenstein chipped in $100,000 to the group. DreamWorks founder David Geffen — a million-dollar donor to Democratic super PACs in 2018 — also gave $100,000 to the Republican-led group. So did billionaire cable TV pioneer Amos Hostetter, another major Democratic donor. Retail developer Joseph Kaempfer added $75,000.

Some current and former Republican donors also bankrolled The Lincoln Project in the second quarter. Investor and former Jeb Bush backer David Seldin gave $75,000. His political contributions have shifted entirely to Democrats in the Trump era. Michigan oil executive Sidney Jansma, who is backing critical Republican congressional candidates in his state such as John James, Peter Meijer and Lynn Afendoulis, (RINO back sabbers) donated $100,000.

#6  All the Lincoln Project people have tax and / or ped0 problems. As long as they run losing campaigns for Pubs or work dirty tricks against Pubs, they have a ticket to play.

#5  RE#1 Why are you not in favor of violence against these type of "people"? Do you think that they wouldn't use it against you?

#2  The principals of the Lincoln Project are all butthurt political consultants who were made to look foolish by Trump's unconventional campaign. They are like all bitter losers, just out to spoil the party they were not invited to. The bigger picture is that political consultants have been a pox on the republic, selling often inferior product to the electorate via "anything goes" tactics.

#1  "people plead with the Lincoln Project to help show Democrats how to win, how to play hardball. You know, this is an example"

So your little grifting vehicle has f-all to do with Lincoln's party and it's principles -- it's actually about defeating them.

I'm not in favor of violence against such little monsters as this thief and his fellow scam artists. But as a matter of justice, they deserve to have their faces rubbed in their own fecal matter at some point.
