34. Conway, Schmidt and Wilson are advisors with an entity called "The Lincoln Project."

On the Project’s website, they clearly state, “Our many policy differences with national Democrats remain,” [but] ”Electing Democrats who support the Constitution over Republicans who do not is a worthy effort.” These folks, while sorely needed to help defeat Trump, aren’t likely to become Democrats in the future.

The Lincoln Project describes itself thus:
https://lincolnproject.us/
DEDICATED AMERICANS PROTECTING DEMOCRACY
The Lincoln Project is holding accountable those who would violate their oaths to the Constitution and would put others before Americans.

WE HAVE SEEN THE BEST AND WORST
OF AMERICAN POLITICS
We understand that action must be taken, now, to protect the institutions that have made the United States the greatest nation the world has ever known.

OUR MISSION
Defeat President Trump and Trumpism at the ballot box. We do not undertake this task lightly nor from ideological preference. Our many policy differences with national Democrats remain. However, the priority for all patriotic Americans must be a shared fidelity to the Constitution and a commitment to defeat those candidates who have abandoned their constitutional oaths, regardless of party. Electing Democrats who support the Constitution over Republicans who do not is a worthy effort.
