Seriously? LOL. Where did he come from.

The good side of it is that it will help expose fakers in the party. Pay attention to who supports him and where his money comes from.

Until he is last in the polls in the run up to the GOP primary.

Then he'll switch to Dem.

What a POS he is.

He’s counting on low-info voters to respond to seeing “Lincoln” on the ballot...

Yep.

No doubt he sees all those no-chance Republicans building slush funds to steal and thought a (recently) Democrat should try that too. Just hitting retirement age.

I thought that I saw where you had announced your candidacy. But I double checked and realized that it was Old Smeller from the dem (communist) party that had announced.
