The Lincoln Project, a group of political retreads whose main mission is the downfall of President Donald Trump, is actively trying to take out Senate Republicans—with one notable exception.

The band of political misfits, lacking in both morals and any semblance of courage, are trying to hand the Senate majority to Democrats by taking out political ads against key GOP senators.

Steve Schmidt, a member of the group who “renounced” his membership in the Republican Party in 2018 because of President Trump, compared taking down the Republican Party to burning an entire system to the ground. “The analogy would be in the same way that fire purifies the forest, it needs to be burned to the ground and fundamentally repudiated,” said Schmidt. “Every one of them should be voted out of office, with the exception of Mitt Romney.”

Much like their muse Romney, The Lincoln Project is essentially composed of people who have no standing in a Trump-fueled America. An island of political misfit toys as it were. But make no mistake, they are not Republicans in any way, shape or form as they continue to profess, or as their media comrades continue to present them.

A true conservative Republican, regardless of their personal feelings toward the president, would still recognize him as the person who can implement their ideals and platforms. The Lincoln Project is not guided by ideals or morals, they’re guided by the juvenile notion that Trump is a bully and as a group of people most likely locked in their own high school lockers growing up, they want revenge. And by God, this is their moment to take down the biggest bully of them all.

What else can you possibly call a group that is willing to abandon everything they’ve believed in for their entire career simply because the president is mean? Joe Biden has suggested that he will support abortion “under any circumstance” as President. He supports open borders. The first thing that will happen after he is elected will be Ruth Bader Ginsburg retiring so he can name a new Justice to the Supreme Court, tilting that institution to the left for decades to come.

Who do you think would win the Presidency?

And people like George Conway and Rick Wilson, fueled by being made irrelevant in the era of Trump and an acute case of Napoleon complex, are going to support open borders, terminating babies, and a socialist/liberal agenda because he irks them? Clowns—all of them. Also, note how they use the same rhetoric —”burning down the system”— as the liberal anarchists torching the streets as a means to protest that with which they do not agree.

They’re liberals. They’re Democrats. Perhaps not in name, but don’t let them tell you otherwise. The group has announced significant ad buys against Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), along with Senators Joni Ernst (R-IA), Thom Tillis (R-NC), and Martha McSally (R-AZ).

President Trump has accurately referred to The Lincoln Project as “loser types” while his campaign has called them “a pathetic little club of irrelevant and faux ‘Republicans,’ who are upset that they’ve lost all of their power and influence inside the Republican Party.” That’s putting it nicely.
