Galen Reed - Politico Interview

“It’s not just pissing off Donald Trump. Anybody could do that ... It’s, to what effect? Like, why are you doing it? And the point is to take him off his game and take his campaign off their game, strategically and tactically, so that the Biden campaign and Joe Biden can have the freedom of movement and the green air to do the things that they need to do.”

3. Sorry. Wrong URL. Fixed.

The Lincoln Project's objectives have 'evolved' since 2018. They are now set on burning the GOP to the ground.

2. Great Strategy and it's Effective

I'm sure that ad featuring Brad Parscale was the beginning of his down fall and the empty stadium in Tulsa was the final straw. Trump seeing the millions that Brad had grifted from campaign funds had to piss him off even more because of his overt display of his new wealth shown in the ad. Who needs 3 condos and 3 or 4 expensive cars and a a yacht to boot?

4. The ad questioning Trump's health is what really triggered him...

It's likely why he talked about the ramp and drinking water at that Tulsa rally.

5. Oh you are being too hard on Bradley.

With all that greed and grifting, he is like family. Let's just call Tulsa his Trump University moment.

So Biden can stay above the fray and be the contrast. Love it

9. I think a lot of them remember what the party stood for before the Goldwater ideology set in

10. That's why I am giving TLP money.

They are clearing the political minefield for Joe.

11. Kicking.

12. Trump has been playing defense for months

They will keep him playing defense. This is great.

[Crunchy Frog]

13. We need strategists of that caliber in our own party.

I'm grateful we have them for this campaign, but they're not going to be available to us as a regular thing.
