With President Trump morphing the Republican party into the party of Trump, a band of disgruntled Never Trump Republican operatives came together to fight back. These operatives – Rick Wilson, Steve Schmidt, John Weaver, and George Conway – formed the Lincoln Project, a political action committee with the sole purpose of ousting Trump from office. But despite being embraced by the #Resistance, their respective histories have been called into question through numerous reports about their finances to the point where they’ve been nicknamed “The Grifter Project.”
My guest today is Ebony Bowden, she’s a Washington correspondent with the New York Post who has broken several damaging stories on the Lincoln Project.
On today’s show, we’re going to discuss the background of the founders of the Lincoln Project, what their motivations are, and what their presence means for the 2020 presidential election.
