“The Lincoln Project condemned its co-founder John Weaver in an official statement released Sunday, after a New York Times report published nearly two dozen testimonies that accused the Republican political strategist of sexual harassment stretching back a number of years.“
It’s like telling people John Bolton is a hero of the left when he was attacking Trump. Their ads got hype, some were pretty good. That doesn’t translate into “darlings of the left”l except here it always does.
The Lincoln Project is a perfect example of “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”. It’s only due to circumstances that progressives align themselves with this group. I’ve no doubt at all that given enough time, the two opposing factions will once again find themselves on opposite ends of the aisle. But for now, both groups have the same agenda.
I’d say darling of some in the media. Morning Joe liked them for instance, entertainment liberal media enjoys “principled conservatives against Trump” narratives. It seemed to go past he ads and onto the people.
That doesn’t carry over with me and the sentiment I read online from random liberals split between the ads are useful and not caring about the ads at all because of the people behind them. On here I saw a lot of enthusiasm for the ads. I was interested in listening to people like Bill Kristol and Michael Steele complain about Trump, but that’s all. Like Ted Cruz trashing Trump at the end of his primary, it was enjoyable, but it didn’t endear me to Cruz, and we see where he ended up after it.
