Explanation:
They’re all made by the Lincoln Project, a political action committee led by high-profile Republicans who want to topple Trump, using firepower they’ve previously trained on Democrats.
And over the course of the last year, the group has moved from an insidery novelty to an online sensation to one that is raising real money. It might have a meaningful effect on this fall’s election.
Emphasis on “might.” The Lincoln Project’s strategy and tactics are a moving target, so it’s hard to get a grip on what it’s really doing and whether it will work. But the group most definitely has the attention of political insiders — some think it could be a useful ally to Joe Biden and actual Democrats; others suggest that it’s not much more than a publicity stunt. Either way, the Lincoln Project has your attention, whether you realize it or not.
