He didn't pass in math and later revealed that he had been diagnosed with a learning disability that made it difficult to read and understand higher math.

He was among the young boys who helped in Democrat Bill Bradley's 1978's United States Senate election that was held in New Jersey. Steve went to the University of Delaware from 1988 until 1933, where he majored in political science. At the time, he had registered as a Republican.

In 2019, Steve was part of a group of republicans who formed a project named the Lincoln Project with the aim of preventing the re-election of former President Trump.

The Lincoln Project

The Lincoln Project is an American political action committee that was formed in 2019 by former and incumbent Republicans. The main aim of the project was to prevent the re-election of Donald Trump in 2019's elections and to defeat all Republicans in close races that were running for re-election in the United States senate.

The Lincoln Project founders were Rick Wilson, Steve Schmidt, George T. Conway III, Reed Galen, John Weaver and Jennifer Horn.
