Rick Wilson has taken to The Internet to express his displeasure with "Trump's people" and the "mob loose on me and my family".
2/ Do I wish that on people? No. It is awful.— Rick Wilson (@TheRickWilson) August 7, 2019
Trust me, when Trump's people turned the mob loose on me and my family, it was a nightmare for my children.
Me? Whatever. I'm in the arena. Bring your shit on. I'll carve your eyes out and roll them like dice.
A few thoughts.
First, this shouldn't happen to anyone.
Second, welcome to Liberalville Rick!
I guess you just didn't notice or didn't care about the incalculable harm that your party's horde of reprogrammable Republican meatbags were doing as long as they were doing it to us stupid Libtards. Because like a political hog factory, the hard, thankless, dirty and unprofitable work of cleaning up the toxic runoff from Conservative poison peddlers like Mr. Wilson -- of undoing the long-term damage caused by the toxic pig-shit they've spent decades pumping into our nation's ideological groundwater -- has always been someone else's problem.
Third, here's a thought! Maybe if you and people like you hadn't spent your entire adult life feeding red meat to wingnuts and helping the GOP build a base of reprogrammable Republican meatbags who would mindlessly swarm anyone or anything their leaders told them to attack...
...there wouldn't be ready-made attack mob of reprogrammable Republican meatbags at Trump's fingertips for his people to sic on you now?
Karma really is a bitch, ain't it?
And finally, about all this laughable, little-man, pro wrestling bluster about "I'm in the arena," and "Bring your shit on."?
It's true that from behind his keyboard Rick now makes a nice living yelling at the ignorant, toe-pickin', gas-sippin' Republican mob who put Donald John Trump in the White House.
But just let one, well-read Liberal with a long memory start asking inconvenient questions about exactly how that ignorant, toe-pickin', gas-sippin' Republican mob came to be in the first place and who is to blame for it, and watch how fast Rick Wilson turns tail and runs, having failed to either carve my eyes out or roll them like dice.
Although I am definitely rolling them now.
Behold, a Tip Jar!

That ending.
Made me laugh like a loon.
Mes compliments au Chef!
I'll say to Rick the same thing I say to the racist trolls who want to get their race war on:
Bring it, punk. Bring that shit just inside the Oakland city limit, and when we're through with you you'll be naked, penniless, and without a phone or vehicle among you, and you better hope you make a good impression on the black OPD officers who get dispatched to deal with you, as Santa Rita jail isn't a safey-snowflakey kinda joint.

I am reading the book Democracy Inc. Published in 2008. Really worth reading. Here he describes the republican party. The contemporary Republican Party is both antidemocratic and illiberal. It is notable for its contempt for the weaknesses it attributes
to its rivals: moral flabbiness, antipreemption, antimilitarism (= “hate
America”), welfare laws, poverty programs, respect for treaty obligations, environmental protections (= tree huggers), and French fries.
An antidemocratic party tries to prevent the formation of an active,
participatory demos—it distrusts popular demonstrations—and is
deeply antiegalitarian. An illiberal party, it considers “rules” less as restraints than as annoyances to be circumvented. It exploits the vulnerabilities of a two-party system with the aim of reshaping it into a more
or less permanent undemocratic and illiberal system.
The Republican Party is not, as advertised, conservative but radically
oligarchical. Programmatically it exists to advance corporate economic
and political interests, and to protect and promote inequalities of opportunity and wealth. Pragmatically its elites form alliances with the
“elect,” evangelicals who, seeing themselves as distinguished by their
intimate relation to their savior and privileged by their knowing what
their god has in store for mankind, supply an “ideal” element to an
otherwise decidedly worldly party. To promote a permanent hegemony,
the party adopts the strategies of a movement. It systematically trains
future cadres of loyal followers and leaders, enlisting them when they
are young (Republican Jugend), and carefully tutoring them as it shepherds them through the educational systems from which eventually
dependable apparatchiks emerge.2 The combination of party and movement harbors intimations of inverted totalitarianism, not least because
it is driven by forms of extremism, of intolerance, of aggrandizement
both materialistic and spiritual
Thanks for recommending the book Democracy, Inc. I just purchased it, but am a little scared to read it.
I generally like Hayes, Maddow and O'donnell but they continue to bring on their shows these old republicans from back in the late 1980 and 1990's on to pontificate with the same type of Wilson "Oh my how could this have happened bullshit." I always record the shows before I watch them just so I can fast forward past these 'Old time republicans" just because I can't stand to listen to them blab on and on. But as you have said many times never once do they ever admit the the left has always been right about the right. Maddow is about the best at not bring on these "gee whiz Trump has ruined the republicans" shits who can't remember the past except the "glory of Reagan" bullshit. O'donnell keeps bring on that thing called George Will every couple of weeks to complain, drool, and wheez about Trump that just about ruins anything good O'donnel has said on his show.
And yes all three of them just can't quite say it loud and clear that Trump is just the end result of what the fuckin' republican's have been working towards for the last 50 plus fucking years. And that doesn't include their failed attempt to get rid of FDR and his work to fix what the republicans fucked up before he was elected.
And yes I have my fantasy of seeing Trump perp-walked out of the White house with the rest of his boot lickers in full chain sets just before the fumigators arrive to clean the place up.
Huzzah to that last bit in particular!
