George Conway, Trump conservative critics launch PAC to fight re-election
AP via NBC "News" ^ | December 17, 2019 | By The Associated Press

A small group of President Donald Trump's fiercest conservative critics, including the husband of the president's own chief adviser, is launching a super PAC designed to fight Trump's re-election and punish congressional Republicans deemed his “enablers."

The new organization, known as the Lincoln Project, represents a formal step forward for the so-called Never Trump movement, which has been limited largely to social media commentary and cable news attacks through the first three years of Trump's presidency. Organizers report fundraising commitments exceeding $1 million to begin.

The group is led by a seven-person advisory council that features some of the GOP's most vocal Trump critics. Most, but not all, have already left the Republican Party to protest Trump's rise.

The principals include former John McCain adviser Steve Schmidt, former Ohio Gov. John Kasich adviser John Weaver, former New Hampshire GOP chair Jennifer Horn, veteran Republican operative Rick Wilson and George Conway, a conservative attorney and husband of Trump's chief counselor Kellyanne Conway.

The group begins as a super PAC, which means it can raise and spend unlimited sums of money and must disclose its donors.

Just another bucket full of @ssholes whose globalist political agenda has no popular support in the U.S.

Rush just talked about this group of $hitstains, which include Rick Wilson, Jonah Goldberg, Christine Todd Whitman, Bill Kristol, and other assorted a**holes.

I hope they decorate lamp posts all over the country!

I don’t envy her and, sad to say, I do not respect her.

Unless they are putting their own money in, they are not going to get anywhere. Of course the MSM will lap this up.

This is largely the same bunch that got us into the Second Iraq War and 18 years of fighting and losing our best young men and women in a useless war in Afghanistan that even the Washington Post recognizes as futile. They should stick to looking for Saddam’s WMDs the were always yelling about; we neither need them nor want them.

Fake news.

No conservatives there.

Just a bunch of aging neocon profiteers who want the warbucks turned back on.

super PAC designed to fight Trump's re-election and punish congressional Republicans deemed his “enablers."

Remember, he called his wife an "enabler" on Twitter, not long ago.

He's trying everything to stop his wife from running Trump's campaign.

All of us are sooooo happy most of these disgruntled losers have already left the Republican Party party... It’s either them or the 65 million of us who elected President Trump.
