I have Inspector Clouseau sleuthing skills... That, plus we aren’t allowed to say how we actually use the internet for, you know, research in Vile Butthead’s own thread. |

This is worth reading. It’s hard to maintain the fiction of The Lincoln Project as a Republican group. A couple of erstwhile Republican operatives who notably failed to elect Republican presidents are now trying to elect a Democratic one. They call their super PAC, self-importantly, The Lincoln Project. The operation is devoted to churning out harsh and often ridiculously over-the-top ads attacking President Donald Trump that are invariably praised by the media and progressives on Twitter, who are The Lincoln Project’s political base. It is certainly understandable to be a Republican who’s appalled at Donald Trump and refuses to vote for him. But it’s another thing entirely to go raise millions of dollars from Democratic donors and run ads not just against Trump but against run-of-the-mill Republican senators whose only offense is having an R next to their names. www.nationalreview.com/2020/07/anti-trump-lincoln-project-not-republican-group/ |

Here's more from Miles Taylor the former chief of staff at the DHS...a gut who trump claims he doesn't know...well, this guy knows trump well enough... You didn’t do your homework vile. Try it next time before you make a fool out of yourself again. Miles Taylor, my former colleague at the Department of Homeland Security recently wrote a scathing op-ed about President Trump and endorsed Joe Biden in an advertisement paid for by Republican Voters Against Trump. “What we saw, week in and week out, after two and a half years in that Administration, was terrifying,” said Taylor. Christina Bobb, former Executive Secretary of DHS I wish I could tell you I’m shocked at the disgusting mischaracterization of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and President Trump by Miles Taylor this week, but I’m not. This is typical Miles. I was the Executive Secretary for DHS under Secretary Nielsen while Chad Wolf was the Chief of Staff. Miles was the Deputy Chief of Staff and a policy counselor for almost all of his tenure at the Department. Contrary to what his ad and article imply, he only held the role of Chief of Staff for a number of weeks, maybe eight, until he was fired. www.oann.com/dhs-execs-attention-grab-falls-flat-with-those-who-served-with-him/ |

Surely you don’t think your lies will stand up to the work of Rich Lowry, the highly respected editor of the National Review do you? Richard Lowry is an American author who is the editor of National Review, an American conservative news and opinion magazine. Lowry became editor of National Review in 1997 when selected by its founder, William F. Buckley, Jr., to lead the magazine. Lowry is also a syndicated columnist, author, and political analyst who is a frequent guest of NBC News and Meet the Press. His most recent book, The Case for Nationalism: How it Made Us Powerful, United, and Free, was released in November 2019. |

Try it next time before you make a fool out of yourself again. I don't have homework. I also don't get my "news" from a biased source like OAN. Not surprising that they say nice things about trump and bad things about his detractors. Do they have anything bad to say about Colin Powell? Oh no...I feel so foolish. ROFL. |

Yes I do....Richard Lowery has his opinion and I have mine...and so does Colin Powell, and Miles Taylor and all those other people I've posted videos of...and so do you...carry on.  |

Here's the bottom line on this Lincoln Project: you can post 100--or 1,000--of these videos but they have ZERO influence on Trump supporters. These consist largely of former bureaucrats like Miles Taylor who don't like the fact that Trump (who was elected by the voters) doesn't agree with them (who weren't elected to anything) on policy. The others are genuine GOP voters who care more about style than substance; that's their right. If they genuinely prefer the policy platform of the Radical Left, then conservatives like myself are happy to see them depart for the Democratic Party.
The other category of GOPers "against" Trump are also-rans Mitt Romney, John Kasich, Jeb Bush, and John McCain (represented by his wife and daughter), who's failure to show any commitment or backbone in articulating and defending conservative principles for the past 20 years is the primary reason Donald Trump (who did and does) is President.
As for Neocons like Bill Kristol and former military guys such as Colin Powell, this suffices:

Then of course there's this guy who helped get trump elected in 2016...I suppose you'll toss him under the bus as well... Steve Bannon charged with fraud over Mexico wall fundsFormer Trump adviser Steve Bannon has been arrested and charged with fraud over a fundraising campaign to build a wall on the US-Mexico border.
Mr Bannon and three others defrauded hundreds of thousands of donors in connection with the "We Build the Wall" campaign, which raised $25m (£19m), the US Department of Justice (DoJ) said.
Mr Bannon received more than $1m, at least some of which he used to cover personal expenses, the DoJ said.
He is due to appear in court later.
The "We build the wall" campaign pledged to use donations to build segments of the border barrier - whose construction was a key Trump promise during the 2016 election - on private land.www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-53853297Just another example of the type of people that your guy surrounds himself with. Another fine Republican going to go to prison. I hope nobody here lost too much money in this fraud...not that anyone here would have the guts to admit it if they had. |

I have no doubt that you're impenetrable to facts or anything that might change your mind...that's not why I'm posting these videos. I just don't want you to be surprised in November. Enjoy. |

I wish you'd get a life. I could post all day long videos of D's who are now R's. At least go back to saying something stupid so I could be amused.
