David Geffen and other have given to this fake “Republican” group. Not even RINOs. Democrat loyalists lying to Republican voters.

Mitch McConnell should be speaking out trying to keep the Senate.

If they’re targeting Collins, then they’re not even RINOs. Collins is a RINO’s RINO. The Lincoln Project is a demoncrap front group, with a phony RINO veneer. They get away with this because fake news guards their secret.

Lincoln Project reports raising $16.8 million for anti-Trump efforts
The Hill ^ | 7/15/2020 | Tal Axelrod

Among the organization’s most prominent donors are billionaire hedge fund manager Stephen Mandel, who gave $1 million, business magnate David Geffen, who gave $100,000, and Bain Capital chairman Joshua Bekenstein, who also gave $100,000.


David Geffen of Geffen Records and DreamWorks SKG has never been conservative

He was an early financial supporter of President Bill Clinton. In 2001, he had a quarrel with the former president over Clinton’s decision not to pardon Leonard Peltier, on whose behalf he had lobbied the President.[37]

Geffen was an early supporter of Barack Obama for president and raised $1.3 million for Obama in a star-studded Beverly Hills fundraiser.[38] On February 21, 2007, in an interview with Maureen Dowd of The New York Times, Geffen described Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton in unflattering terms: “Everybody in politics lies, but they do it with such ease, it’s troubling.” He said that Hillary Clinton was “incredibly polarizing” and described Bill Clinton as “reckless” and cast doubt on those who say he has become a different person since leaving office.

How much of that $4 million did Vladimir Putin contribute?

Funny too, they are targeting RINO’s that are not far enough left!


Yes I find it very strange. You would think if you were a Mitt Romney Republican then Susan Collins would be your kind of senator!

These people are obviously Dems .. the media should stop calling them GOP.

Aren’t Ronald Reagan’s Leftist children calling out Trump for using comparisons to President Reagan (whom they both opposed as a poltician)?

If the media did that, then they wouldn't be DNC stooges, would they?

Not the kids, it was the Reagan Foundation. I don't know what control, if any, they exercise over it.

Why do they keep calling them a GOP group? I dont understand how they could be wanting to flip the Senate!

Even Susan Collins is too conservative for this "GOP group."
