                      I thought the Lincoln Project was full of never-Trump Republicans that had principles that I could respect.

                      Why are they behaving this way?

                        Doxxing people to stay relevant? I don’t know who they think they are making friends with. The dems will flay them alive some day.

                          I guess. Adopting the most hateful tactics of the left. They might as well join with the Libertarians.

                          (*edit: I don't mean that Libertarians have adopted anything from the left, I am thinking more that the Lincoln Project people might as well go off in a corner and no longer have a real presence in politics).

                                  I am under the impression that the Lincoln Project started out as an organization of Republicans dedicated to opposing Trump. Now that Trump has been voted out, it looks like the Lincoln Project is taking on Trump's remaining supporters and opposing Trumpism itself, however that is defined. (What else are they going to do after Trump lost the election? Disband altogether? If you are the new "boss" of the Lincoln Project today, what new direction would you set them on?)

                                  It looks to me there has also been significant personnel turnover at the Lincoln Project. The original founders like George Conway III is no longer active there. Now you have people like Steve Schmidt (former McCain campaign manager) who is "late to the party", so late that frankly there isn't that much Trump left for them to oppose. How else are they going to derive value out of the Lincoln Project? They have got to find new targets to oppose, I suppose.

                                  Different people, different behaviors. Reaching for a parallel in the business world, it's a bit like start-ups whose second wave of employees/managers (after some initial success) not behaving quite like the original founders and their initial hires.

                                        I think it hilarious that the organization Conway founded, is now trying to make sure his wife never works again.

                                        1. The Conways said they want time off to focus on their family; so I don’t think “working again” in the short term is something they care about.
                                        2. Even if Kellyanne does not work for political campaigns in the USA because of the Trump stink, she can still work foreign campaigns where voters don’t care about Trump at all.
                                        3. Besides, there is life, and work, beyond politics.

                                          Pay attention, lad.

                                          The Stalin wannabes at the LP want to make sure anybody who worked for Trump, never works anywhere again.

                                          Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton
