3rd parties seldom win elections but they can be kingmakers. LP wants to dethrone Trump. Forming their own party will achieve that purpose.
I find the Lincoln Project's continued failure to form a third party deeply disturbing. Their stated purpose is to bring down Trump, and a third party would go a long way towards neutralizing the threat he poses.
They have the reach, the strategists, the base to make this happen. They could run a Cheney/Sanford or Kinsinger ticket and offer rational conservatives who are uncomfortable with Biden an alternative to Trump.

Pros:
* Understands your stack better than you do after glancing through the repo for five minutes.
* Will rewrite said stack 2x as fast, and half as buggy if you let them.
Cons:
* Gives zero fucks.
* Knows we're not *really* like family here.
* No, seriously, absolutely zero fucks given.
Do not cite the deep magic to me, product manager, I was there when it was written.
To be clear, I don't want you to stop writing.
FAR FROM IT!
It would just be great if you could (also?) Write things that I could read -- from beginning to end -- during my lunchbreaks.
I don't need all the nuance. My poor working class brain is unlikely to appreciate it, regardless.
But that doesn't mean I don't want to know what is going on. Like you have said: This stuff is important.
@chancerydaily I'm not asking that you be succinct, I'm asking that your writing be accessible to those with full time jobs, families and 45 minute commutes (driving, not riding on the train)
The length of your posts are a barrier to the subject matter. It's clear that you love the subject, but you're making it hard for others to share in your passion no matter how badly they want to. ðŸ˜
@chancerydaily i say this as a plea, not a critique: APPLY BREVITY.
You have a fascinating beat, and I would love to follow these cases, but buddy, I don't have all day! 😠I might be able to carve out an hour a few times a week, but from what I have seen (skimmed) that will barely be enough to get through your newsletter.
And even that might be OK if your newsletter wasn't 75% inner monologue and digressions.
It is super frustrating.
Is it bad that I would LOVE to read a psych profile of George Santos?
@chancerydaily if settlement is imminent, then why push for a june trial?
