It’s not too late for them to do the right thing. Lincoln Project should take the L and publicly pledge to give a lot of their fundraising to the people who actually made a big difference.

And if they spent it all (yikes) then they should consider using their fundraising juggernaut to get resources to those orgs.
If they need ideas there are plenty of recommendations here ⬇️

There’s potential incentive bc @ProjectLincoln is def in scam territory w these results. It’s a pretty bad rep even tho GOP has a thing for failing up.
Come clean, say “listen, we thought it’d work, it didn’t,& in good faith we’re gonna raise X mil for these ppl who deserve it”

And for folks who think it persuaded Republicans, I’d be interested to see data on how effective their videos and NYC billboards were at persuasion. Especially data that justifies $67,000,000.
It’s not that persuasion doesn’t work, it’s a Q of if this was persuasion at all ⬇️

BTW I’m definitely happy to be proven wrong. If we can get independent data that @ProjectLincoln’s videos and billboards were directly responsible for really effective R ➡️ D persuasion - $67 million of it - I’ll publicly apologize. But we just haven’t seen any.
