RANT: If you are a liberal, progressive, or Democrat, and you are amplifying or financially supporting the Lincoln Project PAC @ProjectLincoln or its founders --> WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?
2/ The group's board may include prominent and articulate NeverTrumpers like Kellyanne Conway's husband George Conway, but you have them to thank for Supreme Court Joker Brett "I Like Beer and Sexual Assault" Kavanaugh.
3/ They are hunky dory happy with about 99.9% of what is happening right now, as long as it isn't Donald Trump doing it. More Kavanaughs? Super! Packing the court with right-wing unqualified wingdings who think corporations are people? Fantastic!
4/ Making sure that real people -- especially women, immigrants, minorities, LGBTQ, and anyone who isn't a rich white guy -- don't have civil rights or human rights? Bring it on! THEY ARE WOLVES IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING.
5/ Once Trump is gone, they will still be doing everything they can to ensure stick it to everyone else, and turn the rest of us into extras in the conservative wet dream of a real life Handmaid's Tale of fascist misery.
6/ Their ostensible purpose: defeat Trump.

Lincoln Project PAC has already raised many MILLIONS of dollars. FYI, it's NOT a non-profit, and your donations are not tax deductible. (FYI, they are all millionaires, so why isn't this totally self-funded?)
7/ They are getting boatloads of money from so-called Democrats/liberals-even progressives-& if you give them your money, you are paying for your own assured future destruction. But, but, but...they also hate Trump. So let us all flock to them, & throw our money at them, right?
8/ You all good with rollback of civil and human rights, dismantling of healthcare, elimination of social security & the social safety net, more tax breaks for the rich, more Kavanaughs & court packing?
9/ They are NOT your allies. They are not my allies. Just because they despise Trump and want him gone does not mean they share any other single goddamn thing with any of us in terms of values or the future.
10/ Beyond the obvious possibility that they're using this solely as a new grifting scheme to fatten their already fat pockets, there's another reason why they're doing this. They are elitists with advanced degrees and they are plain out embarrassed...
11/ yes, embarrassed -- as they should be -- to admit in public that they are STILL GOP/conservatives. They know it is now tainted by the stain of stupidity, ignorance, MAGA cultism, and treason Trump has left on the terms GOP or conservative.
12/ They are trying to rehabilitate their reputations -- and in particular, the GOP/conservative label -- in anticipation of an even more profitable life after Trump and continuation of their conservative agenda.
13/ Get rid of Trump & the taint & voila, they're all good with everything else.

So, if you're the Lincoln Project or amplifying George Conway & its other board members, realize that you're self-destructively contributing to a bleak future for you, your children & our country.
14/ & if God forbid you're actually considering giving money to the Lincoln Project...just flush it down the crapper instead. That won't be as destructive to your future as financing this Machiavellian master-trolling grift masquerading as concern for our country.
PS 1 -- Here's why I think the Lincoln Project is getting shared, amplified, and financially supported by liberals/Dems and others who have NOTHING in common with them except the desire to get rid of Trump...

Steve Schmidt is passionate, and occasionally gets into...
PS 2 -- "West Wing/Sorkin-like" oratory about "America." He can be compelling and truly eloquent.

And then there's George Conway. He's FASCINATING, right? Married to the harridan queen of alternative facts, Kellyanne. And yet George Conway clearly so very "smart," right?
PS 3 -- George Conway is so witty, wry, snarky, and it's INTRIGUING to think of what their home life might be like! It's the "train wreck" we can't turn away from! Does he LIVE with her anymore? WHAT'S THE DEAL! "It's SO cool that KELLYANNE's smart lawyer husband trashes Trump!"
PS 4 -- Then there was the slick "evangelical Christian hypocrisy" video. It was good, wasn't it? Well-produced & captures liberals' idea of the total hypocrisy of Christians supporting Trump. But of course it won't do a damn thing to change the minds of evangelical Trump fans.
PS 5 -- (See @C_Stroop if you don't understand why.) The Lincoln Project video wasn't even DESIGNED to change evangelicals' minds! It's a fundraiser. "Hey, liberals & Dems, lookee what Lincoln Project's doing to help you get rid of Trump! Send money." (And it worked! Kaching!)
PS 6 - The Lincoln Project's PAC now has fat coffers filled with millions of $$ to pursue their goals. Woe to the progressives, Dems & liberals who are financing them, not realizing that the group's agenda is CONSERVATIVE, HARD-RIGHT, and RIGHT-WING. /end
