Who's Left at Lincoln Project? Steve Schmidt Resigns After Reports He Bought a $2.9 Million Utah Mansion
RedState ^ | February 12, 2021 | Jennifer Van Laar

The house of cards is crashing down, it seems, at the Lincoln Project. One week after co-founder Jennifer Horn resigned, two more high-profile resignations have taken place: co-founder Steve Schmidt and Kurt Bardella. Unpaid advisor “Expert” Tom Nichols also announced his resignation Friday.

Axios first reported that Schmidt announced his resignation during an all-hands call Friday evening.

Then, because it seems Schmidt cannot leave anything left unsaid, he posted a long resignation letter on Twitter. In the letter he described sexual abuse he suffered as a boy at Boy Scout camp and says that he would have never covered up John Weaver’s abuse because of those experiences. Being a victim of sexual abuse is no laughing matter, and there’s no reason to doubt that Schmidt is telling the truth about his experience. However, there are multiple accounts published this week in which Lincoln Project employees and insiders have told reporters that Schmidt knew.....

I despise what Schmidt stands for. He has money. He should simply take up a hobby, maybe find a non-political charity to work for, and stop making other people miserable and hurting our country.

To think that we and Sarah Palin had to rely on the likes of him to beat Obama in 2008!

The Lincoln Idiot's purpose has been fulfilled. Orange Man Bad didn't get re-elected.

Time now for the Left to kick them to the curb.

"Who's Left at Lincoln Project? "

Who's Left? They're all Left. Some have just been better at hiding it than the others. Few remain in the organization, as well. It's a dead duck.

Looks like he used some chunk of money for the down-payment, and can’t cover the mortgage situation now.

I bet you could walk up and bargain the $2.9-million place down $2-million even.

Isn’t this like what Maddoff did with his Ponzi scheme?

From a hate site:
“The thing that is so shocking about the Lincoln Project being exposed as a bunch of boy-loving anal sickos is that no one ever could have predicted it.”

The Lincoln Project is about the most fake thing ever. Get ready for its next form, because these people are not done by a longshot.

That is a chunk of change for a guy with no discernable abilties beyond being abrasive, repellent, and wrong.

And what is it with all these sleazeballs and Utah? Man, it is like the faux-conservative Kevin Bacon of the contiguous states.

The Lincoln Project hasn’t damaged Trump. They’ve done the exact opposite.

These permanent, political DC insider, big-money grifting pedo propagandists are a perfect summary of everything America hates about its government and ruling class.

“ The Lincoln Idiot’s purpose has been fulfilled. Orange Man Bad didn’t get re-elected.”

Honestly, my guess is these people never cared about what happened to Trump. This was all a scam to enrich the founders. They would have adopted any political position they thought would lead to donations from gullible people.

What about Conway, is he still hanging in there with Weaver?

Bingo, it’s a lesson for others who sell-out to the left.

They love Romney type Republicans
and want to be near them.

I don't know but I'll wager Mitt has something to do with it.

Gee, Wally, it looks like The Lincoln Project was really nothing more than a money making operation.

Good grief, it’s Park City, it’s not like he’s moving into the suburbs next to the local Mormon bishop. These rich Park City outsiders hate Utah and Utahns as much as anyone.
