“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” - President Theodore Roosevelt
FDR was needed to reverse the labor serfdom of his time. What we need now is to settle down the rift this president has created. Right now we need someone who is not overtly insane in the White House.
The historical context of the quote is pretty interesting. Roosevelt (26th president) was criticizing Woodrow Wilson's (28th president) handling of WWI. He did so many times. His primary objection was that Wilson was not being aggressive enough. The Democrats at the time were isolationists, so Wilson's entering the war was only done with reluctance. Roosevelt's editorials were received quite poorly by the general public, but clearly the sentiments have aged well. The essay from which the quote is sourced, “SEDITION, FREE PRESS, AND PERSONAL RULE,” was Roosevelt's response to anger about his criticism of Wilson. Also from that essay: "The President is merely the most important among a large number of public servants. He should be supported or opposed exactly to the degree which is warranted by his good conduct or bad conduct, his efficiency or inefficiency in rendering loyal, able, and disinterested service to the Nation as a whole."

I find myself bristling at the mention of your president’s name, shuddering at the thought of your so-called Christian vice-president, dumbfounded by the amoral character of recent judicial appointments, and flabbergasted by the enabling greed of McConnell. I wish my American brothers and sister the best for the future and hope enough of your democracy remains intact to restore your great country.
Thank you, Michael Kelly. We know from past experience that our vote can be over-run by a conservative Supreme Court. There is a force behind Trump and his enablers and supporters that are trying to make America into a warmed-over version of Nazi Germany. We the REAL Americans will vote for Trump's political opponent even if Biden may not be exactly our "dream candidate." ANYTHING is better than Trump.

All the ants floating down the river on a log, all the fish that swim in the rivers and seas could run this country better than Trump has.
A leader that fails to assume responsibility when things don't go well or according to plan is a poor leader indeed. The United States sorely needs a true leader to reunite us, I pray we get one soon.

@@DavidCAdams WRONG! Meaning of “Pass the Buck” ... To “Pass the buck” means to give or shift responsibility for some issue or some problem to somebody else, not yourself, or to pass the blame to somebody else and not accept the blame yourself. The sign on Truman's desk meant that he took/accepted responsibility for everything.
No disrespect to you, but he does take credit, for every thing positive. For example, the economy is about all of us. We work hard, and we agree with the structures, and pay, that management gives us. Also the economy is like a train. he inherited a train the was moving forward for eight years. Yet he has never given any credit, to what he inherited. He also lied about how much money, came from his father, so that he could look greater than what he is. So yes, he refuses to own up o anything negative.
@@yurei8 He's even claimed to sign laws that were signed by Obama. And, of course, lies that he inherited a "broken test" -- for a disase that didn't yet exist.

Apparently allowing a virus to infect 2 million people and kill almost 120,000 is "great" We have a pandemic and depression all at the same time. We are in a darker hour now than after Fort Sumter or Pearl Harbor.
Spok The corona virus epidemic and the black lives matter events have sealed Trump’s presidency as a failure. It has become apparent that Trump is not a leader but a bully. He’ll be gone by next January still believing that he was a great President. He has surrounded himself with yes people and everyone in America has no respect for.
@Spok 1st. It's all of our country, and we have the right to assemble and redress our grievences. How that plays out is the responsibility of our leaders. Unrest is the result of poor leadership. Obviously the guy hiding in his bunker is not up to the task.
This 30-year Republican doesn't recognize his own party. Trump has literally made me a Republican in name only. I'm appalled with where Trump has taken the GOP.
@@leonardbreau8928 No, but I also don't think they're powerful enough to enact every policy they'd want to enact. We have too much government bloat, awkward spending without any sort of fiscally conservative action to cut spending. So, we'll bankrupt ourselves.
Once again a hard hitting piece. Thank you so much, L.P. From the true greats, FDR, JFK, Teddy Roosevelt, among others, to the moderate leaders and the poor leaders - read W Bush, Wm. Harrison (both had common areas; eco policies led to crashes), Hoover (Great depression). Trump might just make a category onto himself" despicable & sickening. He said he'd drain the swamp, never said it wouldn't turn out to be his administration.
Thank you for reminding people what leadership, responsibility & courage are. The thing we have currently occupying the White House, the People's House, has no concept or capability of any of those values. And thank you for honoring the 76th anniversary of D-Day. We need to remember that, too.
Yes, thank you for showing the lie and exposing the con, by contrasting with a man who was a truly accomplished leader. Think of all Eisenhower achieved, including earning the respect of people who lived through such life-threatening times.
“In my work with the defendants (at the Nazi Nuremberg Trails 1945-1949) I was searching for the nature of evil and I now think I have come close to defining it. A lack of empathy. It’s the one characteristic that connects all the defendants, a genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow men. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.”Quotation: Captain G. M. Gilbert
As I read that, I immediately thought of that fake president Trump. It seemed to be an apt description of the Orange Blob cowering in our White House. Way past time to evict that piece of garbage and thoroughly bleach the interoir of it's stench.
I have been following politics for over 45 years. I changed my mind on some issues (e.g. abortion) and others are just self evident (e.g. Bill of RIghts). At this time I am NO FAN of the GOP. I could rant for a while on that point but the reason I am writing here is to commend The Lincoln Project (TLP). They are stating with clarity the problem(s). I hope TLP comes up with a simple bumper sticker that like minded GOP supporters can advertise as such. I really don't think (or at least hope so) that if the GOP supporters KNEW this 'president' they would see the error in their support. Thank you again for your work.

"Obamagate" fits into Trump's deep state fantasy and will wind up just a footnote to Trump's failed presidency. "Trumpgate" will be all the investigations the US Congress is going to start in January, 2021. The crooks and liars working for Trump know this is coming but they are helpless in stopping Trump's unhinged meltdown in the Oval Office. By the time November gets here, look for Trump to be foaming at the mouth mad.

“Freedom means the supremacy of human rights everywhere. Our support goes to those who struggle to gain those rights and keep them. Our strength is our unity of purpose. To that high concept there can be no end save victory.” ~ FDR
Anyone who has ever had to serve in any organization in the role of leader knows Trump isn't one.
Real talk.
Well said.
Apparently you have never been in any type of leadership role.
@@kenclark9369 So, apparently, you have been a leader. Were you as piss-poor as Trump? Then I'm sorry for your staff.
Even the worst leaders I have ever served under were not this bad. The reason was because those leaders actually were screened and met qualifications before they were hired for the job. They didn't just throw money in bully their way in.
Trump to Obama 2014: Leadership: If it happens, you are responsible. If it doesn't happen, you are responsible.
Trump to US 2020: Its Obama's fault.
Leading the country out of the last recession was President Obama s fault ,giving most of it away to millionaires Trumps fault !
2020 Obama still claims 8 years of sub 2% GDP is Bush’s fault.
@@victorchao2405 Please document any recent claims of this stat that Obama has made.
@@victorchao2405 ◀HEAD CASE MORON!
I find myself bristling at the mention of your president’s name, shuddering at the thought of your so-called Christian vice-president, dumbfounded by the amoral character of recent judicial appointments, and flabbergasted by the enabling greed of McConnell. I wish my American brothers and sister the best for the future and hope enough of your democracy remains intact to restore your great country.
You've assessed the American political picture better than many Americans can.
Thank you, Michael Kelly. We know from past experience that our vote can be over-run by a conservative Supreme Court. There is a force behind Trump and his enablers and supporters that are trying to make America into a warmed-over version of Nazi Germany. We the REAL Americans will vote for Trump's political opponent even if Biden may not be exactly our "dream candidate." ANYTHING is better than Trump. My pet Sheltie could run the country better than Trump. All the Spider Monkeys at the local zoo could run this country better than Trump. All the ants floating down the river on a log, all the fish that swim in the rivers and seas could run this country better than Trump has.
A leader that fails to assume responsibility when things don't go well or according to plan is a poor leader indeed. The United States sorely needs a true leader to reunite us, I pray we get one soon.
Thank you Lincoln Project,GOD BLESS AND STAY SAFE.
Thank you Lincoln project.!!!Stay strong America🇺🇸 💜✌☯
We dont expect our leaders to be perfect.
We do expect them to be honest and empathetic though.
THANK YOU for ALL your OUTSTANDING videos!!! & Thank You Lord for the Lincoln Project!!! My prayers are with you all!!! God Bless!!!
I will continue to donate to the Lincoln Project, and so should all Americans.
The Lincolnproject ain't a bad choice but there is something way better to support . www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/radical-way-mobilize-black-voters-2020-work-issues-not-voting-n1068681
I agree, they have the most effective ads for sure. Just donated again today.
This year's republican campaign slogan: The party of no responsibililty.
I repeat myself, the Republican Party is the party of the criminal class. They come to Washington to help their wealthy friends loot the treasury. Now they are the Trump Party.
Also: do and look the other way
The GOP has been the party of do as I say, not as I do my entire adult life. Which started in October 1985.
You guys do realize The Lincoln Project was created and is run by Republicans, don't you? While I am a democrat through and through my issue is with Trump and NOT the Republican Party.
@@JennellLeveque Well, just the current batch then. The Teabilly republicans.
Thank you Lincoln project! You deserve lots of credit for helping turn the tide!
Just made another donation to The Lincoln Project.
Never thought I would donate to Republicans, but
my donations have brought me stunning return for my money!
Good lord, one way or another he's GOT to be removed from office.
Bonespurs needs to go, best sooner than later #25thamendment
Otherwise i doubt he will leave easily or peacefully. He already has armed white nationalist thugs as mercs and has fenced off the white house like the patsy evil orange is.
Let’s vote him out!
I no longer care how. It has to be done by whatever means are necessary
A beautifully said statement couldn't agree more
Just a good angle, target and a bullet.
Trump: the buck stops somewhere else.
Lol
"I don't know anything about Buck, I never met him. I have my photo taken with a lot of people."
The buck stops in his pocket.
The buck stops with Putin
Uru Momo.
More like:
Trump: lots of people have said the buck doesn’t stop with me.
Also trump:
It’s Obama’s fault.
You did a wonderful thing for the country Lincoln Project. Congrats and Thank you
Truman had a sign on his desk "THE BUCK STOPS HERE" trumps sign " i am not responsible"
@Joe V In this context, 'buck' doesn't mean dollar. It's a dealer marker in cards.
@@DavidCAdams ◀ASSHOLE
Truman got mad at Hubert Humphrey for giving a speech on Civil Rights at the 1945 Democrat Convention. Truman called him a "peep squeak".
@@DavidCAdams WRONG! Meaning of “Pass the Buck” ... To “Pass the buck” means to give or shift responsibility for some issue or some problem to somebody else, not yourself, or to pass the blame to somebody else and not accept the blame yourself. The sign on Truman's desk meant that he took/accepted responsibility for everything.
This dude refuses to own up to anything..
Bunker Bone Spurs Boy.
No disrespect to you, but he does take credit, for every thing positive. For example, the economy is about all of us. We work hard, and we agree with the structures, and pay, that management gives us. Also the economy is like a train. he inherited a train the was moving forward for eight years. Yet he has never given any credit, to what he inherited. He also lied about how much money, came from his father, so that he could look greater than what he is. So yes, he refuses to own up o anything negative.
@@yurei8 He's even claimed to sign laws that were signed by Obama. And, of course, lies that he inherited a "broken test" -- for a disase that didn't yet exist.
General Eisenhower was the type of leader i want to see on the Republican party of today , in the meantime , i'll go blue all the way.
@Spok , say whatever BS but we are NOT voting for Donald Trump and he can't win with only his cult votes
Same.
John Kasich is the closest we have for a Republican like Gen. Eisenhower. Who knew the presidency is a civilian position and didn’t require the military to salute him.
@@76482 Bewear of the foxbot and fox drones every body.They blame every thing wrong in the whole universe on dems.But when you do some research and see this for what it is.Foxnews talking points almost word for word with very little difference.I am reminded of LBJ get people to believe they are far better than the most well to do black man.You can pick his pockets clean.Hence they vote against their own interests.
Eisenhower: Any blame was mine alone.
tRump: No I don't take responsibility at all.
Is that what passes for leadership these days?
It’s wonderful to see that there are still people out there who have integrity, well done to all those people who are trying to do the right thing for the US and the world 👍
Thank you so much Lincoln Project. We need to educate the American people as to what democracy means again.
Trump isn't qualified to clean the mud off of Eisenhower's boots.
Trump isn't qualified to clean the mud off of any veterans boots.
Not even licking them.
When he said Make America Great Again, I can now only assume he meant it after he was voted out.
yeah - who knew that he was going to destroy the US - so he could re-use the slogan again
Apparently allowing a virus to infect 2 million people and kill almost 120,000 is "great" We have a pandemic and depression all at the same time. We are in a darker hour now than after Fort Sumter or Pearl Harbor.
The hell with the vote drag him out now before it’s to late
@@kevinhajducky5482 So hard to understand why that hasn't happened yet!
@@kevinhajducky5482 We all wish we could but unfortunately the impeachment failed.
Six words from him own mouth sum-up the life and times of Donald J. Trump: "I take no responsibility at all".
Please... everyone, vote like your life depends on it.
Great advice. Our lives do depend on it.
New Rule: Don't elect gameshow hosts as President
alex trebek would be ok, except he's canadian
Or CEO's .... They think the Nation is their Company and Everyone Works for THEM!
Mr October Or Republicans or Clintons or Obamas!
Thought we'd be on The Apprentice; wound up in the Hunger Games.
Don't elect the wealthy or a celebrity as president.
I am so grateful this organization exist. Thank you so much for trying to bring sanity and responsibility back to our government.
@Spok Like all good little orange cultists you repeat yourself. TROLL
He is a celebrity, not a leader. And to add dose not know crap. "It will disappear like a miracle " I quote. Thanks from the Caribbean.
It saddens me to think he could have even won nomination. What were they thinking!
Guys please share this... the Lincoln project doesn’t have enough views
share this on hour story or whatever. Please guys

Great vid Lincoln Project. Once again bringing the truth to Americans.
I think this ad is one of my favorites! Not bombastic just truth telling and very succinct!
Spok have you heard about McCarty? A relative?
Trump is terrible and has to go! He has ruined our country - deplorable
Spok The corona virus epidemic and the black lives matter events have sealed Trump’s presidency as a failure. It has become apparent that Trump is not a leader but a bully. He’ll be gone by next January still believing that he was a great President. He has surrounded himself with yes people and everyone in America has no respect for.
@Spok
1st. It's all of our country, and we have the right to assemble and redress our grievences.
How that plays out is the responsibility of our leaders.
Unrest is the result of poor leadership.
Obviously the guy hiding in his bunker is not up to the task.

I love the Lincoln Project ads. Very honest and very motivating. Keep them coming
Kelly Ann Conway's husband, a Republican, is a key member of The Lincoln Project.
This 30-year Republican doesn't recognize his own party. Trump has literally made me a Republican in name only. I'm appalled with where Trump has taken the GOP.
Reagan is the one that "taken" the Republican party into the anti-everyone else mode.
If you're 30 then the changes the Republican party is made in your lifetime were next to irrelevant!
Vote for Biden since he's moderate, then we can focus on getting better Republicans into the fold...
I'm always gunning for Libertarians.
@@hellomate639 Do you think Libertarians are moderate?
@@leonardbreau8928 No, but I also don't think they're powerful enough to enact every policy they'd want to enact.
We have too much government bloat, awkward spending without any sort of fiscally conservative action to cut spending.
So, we'll bankrupt ourselves.
Thank you, Lincoln Project. Keep up the great work.
EXCELENT ! ! !
Concise and true.

LOVED IT!
Once again a hard hitting piece. Thank you so much, L.P. From the true greats, FDR, JFK, Teddy Roosevelt, among others, to the moderate leaders and the poor leaders - read W Bush, Wm. Harrison (both had common areas; eco policies led to crashes), Hoover (Great depression). Trump might just make a category onto himself" despicable & sickening. He said he'd drain the swamp, never said it wouldn't turn out to be his administration.
I love this Lincoln project, Keep up the great work for America..Thanks
Thank you for reminding people what leadership, responsibility & courage are. The thing we have currently occupying the White House, the People's House, has no concept or capability of any of those values.
And thank you for honoring the 76th anniversary of D-Day. We need to remember that, too.
Well said Deborah. Thank you!
Yes, thank you for showing the lie and exposing the con, by contrasting with a man who was a truly accomplished leader. Think of all Eisenhower achieved, including earning the respect of people who lived through such life-threatening times.
“In my work with the defendants (at the Nazi Nuremberg Trails 1945-1949) I was searching for the nature of evil and I now think I have come close to defining it. A lack of empathy. It’s the one characteristic that connects all the defendants, a genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow men. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.”Quotation: Captain G. M. Gilbert
As I read that, I immediately thought of that fake president Trump. It seemed to be an apt description of the Orange Blob cowering in our White House. Way past time to evict that piece of garbage and thoroughly bleach the interoir of it's stench.
@@kj3832 ...DEFINITELY
True. That's basically the nature of evil.
@Joe V How about a firing squad for our draft dodging useless COWARD IN CHIEF. That would really be appropriate, don't you think?
Agree.
Thank you for putting country ahead of party.
Make America Great Again... get rid of Trump.
On the 76th anniversary of D-Day - you nailed it! Now it's up to US, "we the people", to take action.

BRAVO LINCOLN PROJECT. Keep the good works and air this video in the national tv as well so that all the traitors in the senate see it.
Keep up the excellent work, Lincoln Project! Many thanks.
You guys are amazing 😉 keep up the good work please 👌👌
ONCE AGAIN: EXCELLENT WORK BY THE LINCOLN PROJECT.
I have been following politics for over 45 years. I changed my mind on some issues (e.g. abortion) and others are just self evident (e.g. Bill of RIghts). At this time I am NO FAN of the GOP. I could rant for a while on that point but the reason I am writing here is to commend The Lincoln Project (TLP). They are stating with clarity the problem(s).
I hope TLP comes up with a simple bumper sticker that like minded GOP supporters can advertise as such. I really don't think (or at least hope so) that if the GOP supporters KNEW this 'president' they would see the error in their support.
Thank you again for your work.
I prefer a leader who takes responsibility for their actions, not one who blames it on others.
"I didn't do it. Nobody saw me do it! You can't prove anything!"

Trump: Hope for the best, be the absolute worst.
He dosn't even hope for the best.
Claim you're the best despite being the worst
"It is mine alone" This is why he will be remembered.
Excellent Job LP !!! 👏👏👏👍🤙✌️
Why is there "Obamagate" but not "Trumpgate"?
because explainig someone everything that is a part of trumpgate would take 3 and a half weeks.
Trump is a genius but you can't see his grades
Trump is healthy but you can't see his medical report
Trump is Rich but you can't see his taxes
Trump is Innocent but you can't subpoena Witnesses
Trump accuses Obama of crimes but cant say what's the crime
Trump accuses the news of being fake when repeating what just came out of his mouth
Trump says we have the coronavirus under control but says testing is overrated every time you do a test you get a case maybe we shouldn't test
Because everything about Trump is scandal
"Obamagate" fits into Trump's deep state fantasy and will wind up just a footnote to Trump's failed presidency. "Trumpgate" will be all the investigations the US Congress is going to start in January, 2021. The crooks and liars working for Trump know this is coming but they are helpless in stopping Trump's unhinged meltdown in the Oval Office. By the time November gets here, look for Trump to be foaming at the mouth mad.
@@ThomaaasoooMinor correction: You misspelled years for weeks!
Keep em coming! These ads are amazing!
To the Lincoln Project. I have to say, thank you.

Well done
VOTE Blue for real leadership we can be proud of in november!!
For many conservatives it will be a case of "hold your nose and vote for Biden". Trump's actions disqualify him.
A very powerful message. I had no idea. Thank you Lincoln Project.
Congratulations to those true patriots and supporters of American democracy for posting such candid, thought provoking and insightful uploads. thank you Lincoln Project, thanks George.
This a time of choosing: America or Trump
You just summed up the November election very nicely.

Fascist or Democracy is the choice Americana is facing,
Freedoms or the path Germany took under Hitler, Italy under Mosalini or Eric Campbell's New Guard Fascist movement in Australia.
Exactly America Must Choose the right path and then There is true free will
A fish rots from the head down.
This is sooooooo true. We don't have a leader now!!!
"No I didn't do it. We have a group of people. I take no responsibility." That is precisely why 2020 will find you out of the W H, and appropriately in a prison cell.

He thinks he’s all grown up!! Stupid baby.
Love the Lincoln Project group- Keep it coming, George, Rick and Steve! You will always be on the right side of History. We must vote this conman out! November can't come soon enough!
