Defeating Trump and Trumpism: The Lincoln Project
Republicans and conservatives revolt to save the rule of law
For the Lincoln Project, defeating Trump — and Trumpism — in the next elections means saving the country, nothing less.
By David Stone
We have seen the best and worst in American politics. We understand that action must be taken, now, to protect the institutions that have made the United States the greatest nation the world has ever known.
The Lincoln Project
That’s what they said when they launched their campaign to dislodge Trump from the White House. But now they’ve stepped up the mission with ads aimed at convincing voters.
We started this webpage before the coronavirus crisis crippled our country, and everything’s changed. Brutal failures in national leadership leave us dangling over a precipice, collapse is nearer than you think.
By supporting the Lincoln Project in defeating Trump, we have our one chance to reclaim out community of values.

We believe this video — Mourning In America — expresses our fears perfectly.
But the Lincoln Project Is About More Than Defeating Trump
The enablers must go too.

That’s how a determined band of Republicans, libertarians and conservatives define their mission.
“Patriotism and the survival of our nation in the face of the crimes, corruption and corrosive nature of Donald Trump are a higher calling than mere politics,” they said in New York Times editorial: We are Republicans, and we want Trump defeated.
Meanwhile, the Lincoln Project aims at defeati.ng more than Trump and Trumpism They also want to take down those who abandoned their oaths of office, regardless of party.

Shared fidelity, the Lincoln Project defeating Trump…
More importantly, they say, “Electing Democrats who support the Constitution over Republicans who do not is a worthy effort.”
“Our many policy differences with national Democrats remain,” they insist, “but our shared fidelity to the Constitution dictates a common effort.”
Heading the effort is George Conway, an attorney married to top Trump advisor, Kellyanne Conway. Feel free to imagine the dinner table conversations…
