Anti-Trump Professor: ‘Dying’ GOP ‘Replicating’ Soviet Communist Party
25 Feb 2021
The Atlantic published an op-ed on Thursday comparing the GOP to the Communist Party of the Soviet Union of the late 1970s, claiming that Republicans like the last Soviet-era holdouts in the Kremlin are “growing more aggressive and paranoid” as the “dying” Republican Party is described as “more of a danger to the United States than to the world.”
The essay, penned by Harvard professor and prominent anti-Trump voice Tom Nichols, is titled, “The Republican Party Is Now in Its End Stages” and begins by claiming that the GOP “has become, in form if not in content, the Communist Party of the Soviet Union of the late 1970s.”
Fox News’ ‘Outnumbered’ panel reacts to The Lincoln Project facing calls from two former top officials to shut down over a growing list of scandals, including accusations the group ignored sexual harassment claims against co-founder John Weaver.
A former communications staffer for the anti-Trump Lincoln Project may have run afoul of campaign finance laws meant to prevent chatter between super PACs and campaigns, according to an ethics watchdog group.
Keith Edwards worked as communications director for the Lincoln Project until his departure in November, when he took a position as senior digital advisor for the campaign of Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Ga.

Trump may be gone, but Trumpism will remain an entrenched element of the Republican Party. The GOP traitors at the Lincoln Project who wanted to purge that element are finished. In a couple of weeks, the group that vowed to soldier on after its co-founder, John Weaver, was ensnared in a web of sexual misconduct, has folded. Everyone resigned as dozens of young men came forward about how Weaver had harassed them through private messages. Some of them were as young as 14 when contact was made.
