Lincoln Project Trolls GOP Senators With Biting Trump Impersonator Endorsements

08/05/2020 05:13 am ET Updated 3 hours ago

Lincoln Project’s newest clips are scathing mock “endorsements” for Republican senators Susan Collins, Dan Sullivan and Steve Daines.


Three Republican senators are getting an endorsement they won’t exactly want as a President Donald Trump impersonator gives each one the treatment in a series of new videos.

The Lincoln Project ― a group of conservative never-Trumpers ― recruited comic J-L Cauvin, who is known for his uncanny presidential impersonation, to “endorse” senators Susan Collins (Maine) Dan Sullivan (Alaska) and Steve Daines (Montana), all up for reelection.

Cook Political rates both Collins and Daines as toss-ups, with Sullivan listed as a “Likely R” seat.

Collins in particular has tried to distance herself from Trump, saying she would not appear at the Republican National Convention and did not endorse him.
