The Lincoln Project, with former RNC chair Michale Steele, apparently has a plan to “resurrect the Republican Party in a way that it could become a governing majority in the future”:
The Lincoln Project announces their NEW agenda.

Honest question: Are they on crack?
If the @ProjectLincoln folks believe pro-Trump Republicans are interested in any kind of future rapprochement with their side, they are smoking the crack that is now apparently legal in Oregon.

Here is Twitchy favorite Nick Searcy’s reaction:
The Republicans just had a really good election in the Senate and House:
WTF is this? The GOP just held the Senate, holds 60% of state legislative chambers, 52% of gubernatorial seats, and made gains in the US House defying expectations. I think they're doing okay without the Lincoln Project. https://t.co/EdQ9cXn406

We regret to inform these clowns that their agenda is DOA:
Michael Steele's plan for health-care reform was literally to hand it to the insurers and the hospitals. He is the only person in America who looked at Obamacare and said, "MORE CORPORATISM." https://t.co/cPqF7Qx4IH

But, on the other hand, it’s fun to watch the reaction as libs realize THEY funded this:
Yeah. Good thing y'all gave them so much of your money so they could do exactly what was completely obvious in every way they were gonna do. https://t.co/E0lFQCGTSO

Fact check: True. But for both parties:
The @ProjectLincoln was never our ally.
Time and time again, leaders like @EmiliaSykesOH urged Democrats not to fund, share, or support their efforts.
We need to invest in our own political infrastructure not that of those who will work against progress. https://t.co/iQIaBh2NPY
