    Scaramucci fundraising for the Lincoln Project: I hope Trump is 'humiliated' in Nov


    Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci is the latest big-name Republican to sign on with the Lincoln Project, a GOP-aligned group dedicated to ousting President Trump from office in November.

    Scaramucci confirmed to Bloomberg News in an interview published Thursday that he is assisting the Lincoln Project with fundraising as it seeks to run ads targeting conservative voters who may already be skeptical of Trump's performance as president.

    “He has a chance here to really get humiliated, which I hope he will,” Scaramucci told the outlet. “The economy’s in shambles as a direct result of his decision making and the politicization of a health care crisis. And so for all those reasons, he’s obviously incompetent and so we’ve got to seek his removal.”
    This is only an excerpt from the linked piece.

    Obviously, the guy is much smarter than I previously gave him credit for

    To learn more about the Lincoln Project, to contribute and/or get involved you can do that here.

    O.K., I've heard of the Lincoln Project but have some questions about it. I'm hoping one of the crew here knows the answers.

    If not Trump, who does the Project support? Pence? Or...? And, how does all of this tie into the larger (e.g., Congressional, Senate races).

    It's a shame science hasn't advanced to the point where we could reanimate Theodore Roosevelt, the last true leader this country had...If he could breathe again he'd be eligible to run since he only served only one elected term, having stepped up from the VP position after the death of William McKinley...But we live with what we got......Ben

    ...and what we got ain't much.
    As for the Lincoln project, their current focus seems to be "anybody but trump ".
    I have to know more before I send them a donation. I am as uncomfortable with some of their ads as I am with trump's. I get the concept but I don't agree. Because your opponent crawls on his belly doesn't mean you have to.

    More than you might want to know. https://lincolnproject.us/team/

    One you heard of George Conway. He's been outspoken of Trump for a while, his wife was the spokesperson for Trump.

    The NY Post has long been a right wing tabloid.. just remember that when reading it.. every news source “spins” it’s output.. and most of the political “movers and shakers “ have some “scum puppy” stuff in their closets.. and we’re not voting for the Lincoln Project guys (but the have made some interesting videos)

    Just my opinion, I could be wrong

    How come anybody that doesn't agree with you is a hater? You by far spew more hate than anybody on this site, there's not even a close second.
