Center right folks who still believe there’s room for well reasoned and respectful conservative opinions and like the Lincoln Project, terrified of the damage that’s being done to the Republican brand.
The Lincoln Project is a bunch of grifters that are are doing a great job of milking gullible Dems for money that they pay to consulting firms they own to make ads against Trump.

Edit: I see Baldy beat me to it. :lol:
That they are. Who isn’t a grifter in politics?

True. Trump has been a grifter since long before he got into politics.

The question was if he was a political grifter. Has he been?

Yes. One example - He makes a big deal out of not taking a salary but the cost of the Justice Department defending him in a defamation lawsuit is probably greater than the presidential salary.

So Trump tricked the DOJ into defending him. 4D grifting! :lol:

Next you're going to tell me he hasn't been footing the bill for Air Force One to fly around to his campaign stops.

All joking aside, what defamation suit?

Well, Joe, if you got tens of thousands to your rallies a couple times a day like Trump is doing, you wouldn’t have to worry about a handful of Trump supporters overwhelming yours.. :lol:

No. The question was “who in politics?”. :coffee:

I’ll bet he spends more on golf cart rentals than all the presidents before him combined.

He allegedly leveraged China negotiations for Ivanka trademarks.

The editor of Forbes released a book this fall literally title “White House, Inc.

But yeah...Lincoln Project bad. :lol:

I call The Lincoln Project bad because if you want to talk about grifters, look no further. They for years espoused all of the things Trump has worked towards, but with people like McCain and Romney. Now that there is finally a President that accomplished what they always said they wanted, but doesn't need their help, all of a sudden they switch sides.

They are right in line with all the grifters that took Bloomberg for a ride to give him nothing but less money in his bank account.

More so called experts that never accomplished anything.

Yup. Lincoln Project are just a bunch of butthurt neocons that are mad Trump hasn't done typical neocon shit. Funny thing is I see more of my progressive FB friends pedaling their nonsense as opposed to the Never Trumper types. Go figure.

Bidens houses:
-Outside Wilmington, 6,500 sq ft, 4 acres, lakeview, assessed at 3 million.
-Rehoboth Beach, 4,700 sq ft, bought 2017 for 2.75 million
-After being VP, rented 12,000 sq ft mansion in upscale Mclean, VA, outside DC, with estimated monthly rent of $20,000 a month.

How does a guy who’s a 47 yr career politician making 174k a year as a senator afford all that?

Ice Cube: 'I'm not playing politics' by working with Trump campaign on 'Platinum Plan' for Black Americans
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/ice-cu ... -americans
Wallace noted that President Trump’s son-in-law and top adviser Jared Kushner met with Ice Cube for three hours.

“They listened, heard what I had to say ... and pumped up their plan and presented it to the people on September, I believe, 24,” the rapper told Wallace.

Earlier this month, in a Twitter video the rapper praised the president’s "Platinum Plan" to invest $500 billion in Black communities. In the video he said that Democrats “got every Black celebrity” on “their team,” so “they just figured tell Cube to shut the f--- up and vote.”

Trump is like the energizer bunny, now doing 3 rallies a day. A couple of days ago I saw that the Secret Service estimated (or maybe went through security?) the crowd at 20k, with about that many turned away..Meanwhile Sleepy Joe either hides in his basement, occasionally vwnturing out for a rally like yesterday in Bucks County, PA that drew a small crowd that was drowned out by Trump supporters..

Tomorrow 3 rallies in PA:
-Allentown (Lehigh Valley Int Airport), 11 AM.
-Littiz (Lancaster Regional Airport), 1:30. I’ll be at that one, even though Allentown is a little closer.
-Martinsburg, 4:30

Calling for good chance of rain for 1st 2 rallies eastern PA. Haven’t seen any rallies this yr anyway in the rain, so we’ll see how that effects things..

Tues Trump rallies:
-Lansing MI: ok, makes sense.
-W Salem, WI: ok, makes sense.
-Omaha, NE: Da fuq :suspicious: Predictit has NE as one if the doz or so reddest states in the 90s % chance range for Trump. Neither side is campaigning there. Then I see Eppley Field borders the Missouri River and Iowa. Be alot of Iowans there, & Iowa is considered a swing state (Predictit 63% Trump).

49 Trump Gen election rallies since 6/20,through Wed, 10/28 (2 scheduled Wed in AZ, Bullhead City and Goodyear as of now):
PA: 9
AZ: 6
NC: 5
WI: 5
FL: 4
OH: 3
MN: 3
NV: 3
MI: 3
NH: 2
GA: 1
IA: 1
OK: 1 (1st rally)
SD: 1 (3rd rally, (Mt Rushmore)
VA: 1
NE: 1

Yes, I have. When I flew to 4 cities in 3 days, I forget which city I was in at one point. This happened to me when I was in my late 20's so it wasn't an age thing.
