“Is it Ivanka’s secret deals in China? Is it the 250 million debt that Trump owed the bank of China? It doesn’t matter – because when it comes to Trump, China can’t lose,” the video clip’s voice-over concludes.The Lincoln Project’s website says that its stated mission is to “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," the organization’s mission statement reads. "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,” it says. "Electing Democrats who support the Constitution over Republicans who do not is a worthy effort."On Wednesday, Trump's former national security adviser John Bolton accused him – as does the Lincoln Project – of asking the Chinese president to help him win re-election.Bolton, whom Trump fired in September, said that the president "expressed a willingness to halt criminal investigations to give "personal favors to dictators he liked," according to an excerpt of his book, published in The New York Times.
