In reply to the discussion: Remember when Rick Wilson wished Matt Gaetz a happy birthday on twitter? [View all]Vivienne235729
(3,748 posts)20. It's no secret that Rick Wilson WAS a RW operative. But he's clearly not now.
He may go back to being a Republican later on, too. But for now, he and TLP are working hard to dismantle trump and this virus that is taking over our political landscape.
