Ex-GOP Strategist Forecasts ‘Misery, Humiliation, And Shame’ For Donald Trump
HuffPost
This might be the most dramatic takedown of the president that’s out there right now.
Former GOP strategist Rick Wilson crafted a pitch-black rebuke of President Donald Trump on his Substack Wednesday, warning the president that “misery, humiliation, and shame awaits.”
Wilson, who began his career on ex-President George H.W. Bush’s 1988 campaign and later co-founded the anti-Trump Lincoln Project, predicted the war against Iran would be the breaking point for Trump and his movement.
“Nothing will save you now, Donald,” Wilson wrote. “Not the war. Not the lies. Not today’s loyalists, tomorrow’s traitors. Not the terrified little men orbiting your shrinking political sun. Not the algorithms, not the oligarchs, not the endless stream of garbage Fox and Twitter propaganda pumped into the veins of a movement that’s finally, visibly, unmistakably breaking apart. You chose this.”
Wilson even brought up the i-word, which popped up numerous times in Trump’s first term.
“You’re afraid of impeachment. Of course you are,” Wilson wrote. “It’s the word that haunts you, the specter you can’t quite outrun. But impeachment is the least of your problems. What you should fear, what should keep you pacing the halls of the Residence at three in the morning, is oversight. Relentless, grinding, methodical exposure.”
The "Last Word" host exposed several new lies from the president before holding his bone spur-riddled feet to the fire over one chilling comment.
"I know for a fact that he was aware," the former security official told Anderson Cooper on CNN.
Markets seem to have taken the latest escalations in stride.
