How desperate is Never Trumper Rick Wilson to do anything he can to attack President Donald Trump and anyone who would dare be supportive of him?
Well, as my colleague Sister Toldjah reported earlier, he really was stretching today with his latest effort – an old tweet from 2012, eight years ago, where Domino’s, the pizza chain, thanked Kayleigh McEnany for praising their pizza. Seriously, that’s what he was spending time on. He then tried to get his coterie on the left to “cancel” Domino’s for daring to have tweeted to McEnany long before Trump was even president.

It’s pretty sad what that makes him look like and as Sister Toldjah pointed out, he got epically ratioed by folks who thought he had gone over the falls in a barrel with his Trump hate at this point.
But we have to say that it’s hard to find anyone who sliced and diced him better than writer and journalist James Hasson, and in the process pointed out a basic problem with both Wilson and the Lincoln Project, the “Conservative” group that he helped found.
Imagine digging up a perfunctory thank you from a social media intern *in 2012* and trying to cancel Dominos because it interacted with someone who…joined the Trump administration 8 years later.

But he was only getting started.
Bro, breathe. It came through my timeline. No time was spent "digging it up."
I know you had a bad day. Center and reset. https://t.co/9lx4PPAUpE

I actually had an excellent day, Rick.
You, on the other hand, are tweeting at Dominos because they replied to Trump's spokesperson 8 years ago. Calm down.
PS: you took $64k to make a film about Trump, but you never made it. What happened to that money? https://t.co/aFmHRLfncw https://t.co/H2gUJOwk2n

Oh, my. Nicely done, and what a great question. Where’s the money and what happened to the film, Rick? The fundraiser was three years ago.
Then, Hasson finished him off and the Lincoln Project along with him.
Oh, and by the way @TheRickWilson, when can we expect the Lincoln Project ad touting today’s Planned Parenthood endorsement of Joe Biden?
— James Hasson (@JamesHasson20) June 16, 2020
But remember it doesn’t matter if they throw all their “principles” under the bus and promote Joe Biden who’s endorsed by Planned Parenthood. Conserving conservatism, don’t you know?
Very principled. Very conservative.

Oh, look, eight year old tweets. Well, now that Rick has established the relevance of eight year old tweets, how can they claim to support conservatism and support Joe Biden? How do you throw all your alleged principles under the bus like that?
These weasels don’t care how much they’re harming our country or conservatism in their hatred of Trump, all that matters to them is their hatred of him. They don’t care if they turn the country over to Democrats and open the door even further to the insanity we have seen during the pandemic and during the riots, let alone their regular embrace of socialism and socialists, as long as they do in Trump.
For the salve to their egos, they would do irreparable harm to our nation.
