we can reach more voters. It's a very clear life cycle,
and it works very well. And The Lincoln Project is very quickly becoming
a bigger thing

going after his family, going after Ivanka and Jared,
00:00:06.381 --> 00:00:08.633
that's just not my wheelhouse.
00:00:08.674 --> 00:00:11.803
I personally want to be focused on persuading people.
00:00:11.844 --> 00:00:13.262
But it's in New York City, right?
00:00:13.304 --> 00:00:15.999
We're not trying to persuade New Yorkers.
00:00:15.999 --> 00:00:17.183
But there's so many people in this organization
00:00:17.225 --> 00:00:19.894
with so many combined decades' worth of political work
00:00:19.936 --> 00:00:21.729
that sometimes you do have to sort of be like,
00:00:21.771 --> 00:00:23.094
"Okay, you've done this before, so I trust you."
00:00:25.733 --> 00:00:26.984
Getting Trump's attention gets us more attention,
00:00:27.026 --> 00:00:28.569
which gets us more firepower,
00:00:28.611 --> 00:00:30.405
which means we can reach more voters.
00:00:30.446 --> 00:00:32.407
It's a very clear life cycle, and it works very well.
00:00:34.534 --> 00:00:36.494
And The Lincoln Project
00:00:36.535 --> 00:00:38.083
is very quickly becoming a bigger thing.
