Rick Wilson is most definitely not on the Trump Train. He’s written a book called Everything Trump Touches Dies. He’s very anti-Trump.

Yes, but Wilson still writes fuckery like this:

When you let a closet Democrat like Trump lead the GOP, this is what you get

The problem with people like Rick is that they are immune from introspection. They will never take responsibility for paving the way for Trump and will always project blame onto Democrats for the racist socio-pathology that establishment Republicans condoned and incubated to further their own greed only to lose control of. In their minds Democrats don’t stand for anything because people like Rick never listen to them, so naturally when they see a protean shapeshifting populist monster like Trump actually take over their party and expose the rot at it’s core they call him a Democrat. Because Rick simply cannot allow himself to confront the truth that this is the logical evolution of the conservative movement he was a part of for so long and still internally identifies with.
