So, it's come to PAC on PAC attacks, lol.



On Fox News, Club for Growth ran an ad targeting the never-Trump PAC, The Lincoln Project.

Not sure I remember another instance of a PAC targeting another PAC like that before.

So, in other words, they're scared shitless of TLP. The Lincoln Project is a masterclass on getting under your opponent's skin and rattling them to their core. Like the tweet says, I've never seen a PAC attack another PAC before. Gee, you'd think they'd spend their money on actual candidates, but I guess going after TLP is more important to them.

The Lincoln Project is our frenemy at this point in time. That will eventually change should VP Biden get elected sine TLP is made up of "former" Republicans.

In the meantime, however, I don't mind watching Republicans go after one another and Rick Wilson's response to the Club for Growth is classic:

In the publicity game, controversy is far better than good deeds.
