Inside the Lincoln Project's new campaign targeting Trump's law firm

The Lincoln Project is kicking butt here.




“These people have now decided that attempting to undermine the outcome of a just and fair election is perfectly acceptable for their legal practices,” Rick Wilson, a GOP strategist and co-founder of the Lincoln Project, told me, in a reference to Jones Day and other firms representing Trump and the GOP.

Wilson said the Lincoln Project will “bring a light on that,” noting that such efforts help Trump in “waging lawfare against the American people.” Jones Day represents The Washington Post on labor and employment law matters.

This new campaign is a reminder that Trump’s efforts to overturn the results rely heavily on the complicity of many other actors — and that aggressive efforts will be needed to hold them accountable for it.

The campaign also raises interesting possibilities involving the future of Never-Trump Republicans, about whether they’ll keep battling against GOP voter suppression and for revitalized democracy once Trump is gone.
