..she's introducing others, names are at bottom corner. I've seen and heard of others on panel on various programs-- just don't recognize her. Anyway, I agree with Wilson is right going to be a crazybat ahite show oraizmsing his lordship.

My 87 yr old father says he's going to watch. Why? I asked jhim its ust going to be crazy mierda from el diablo that we've seen and heard for almost 4 years. He said he wants to know what this guy and his ghoulish sycophants are saying, doing to our country. Well, I'm adamant about not watching-- it'll be toxic. It'll be fox news/ limbaugh/ hate christian programming on steriods!

Told my dad, not going to subject myself to his hate propganda and lies, laden with racist bigoted dog whistles. My concern is that he will use the media to unendingly repeat, repeat his prooaganda..never trumpers will do it; we'll do it thus wel'll do his job for him--allow him to dominate rhe airways wirh his hate and fear mongering. Rather, imo we should ignore him--not give him any time..nada--es todo, thats all he gets from liberals. Yet, I know that is not how the next 4 days will pan out.

What say you? Are you [DUers out there] going to watch?

it'll be on YouTube with these guys. Rick Wilson was saying something about watching it "Mystery Science Theater 3000" style so it may be worth it just for that.

they all seem to be true patriots and very concerned about our democracy.

They are pulling no punches and stating facts.

I wish all republicans were as open to discussion as the Lincoln Project.

not because they believe in Democratic policies-- in fact, they don't, but because they recognize that the Democratic Party supports the traditional American values of democracy (voting), freedom (of press, religion etc), equality, etc-- these are the core conservative and liberal values that have motivated Americans since its founding, and even more so since the 20th century.
The Republican Party of Trump is trying to subvert the nation through lies and direct attacks on core American values. The Lincoln Project founders are patriots because they are sacrificing their partisan issues for the bigger issues of saving the country. In other words, they are patriots.
