Isn’t this the guy who used to work for McCain and was responsible for giving McCain the dossier? He is known as a dirty player.
According to the Center for Responsive Politics, Wilson’s firm Intrepid Media also worked for a super PAC in support of Marco Rubio’s presidential campaign. According to financial records, the super PAC—called Baby Got PAC—paid Intrepid Media $42,240 in November 2016 for media consulting.
NeverTrump movement
During the 2016 election, Wilson was seen as one of the originators of the NeverTrump movement, a collective of mostly conservative voters who have vowed not to cast a vote for Donald Trump under any circumstances. Wilson has been critical of Trump during his appearances on national television and has vowed to never support Trump under any circumstances. In an opinion piece for the Independent Journal Review, Wilson wrote, “I will never vote for Donald Trump, not even if he’s the Republican nominee. I will never vote for Donald Trump, not even if Ronald Reagan and William F. Buckley rise from the grave and beg me to support him.”
He was also involved in an effort to find an independent candidate for president as an alternative to Trump. According to The New York Times, Wilson was “the main strategist on the effort” to gain ballot access for an independent candidate in all 50 states. He worked with the nonprofit organization Better for America to gain this access through traditional methods as well as litigation.

Tallahassee, Florida (CNN)To Donald Trump’s supporters, the real estate mogul-turned-presidential candidate is a refreshing reprieve from politics-as-usual, a man who shuns political correctness and the status quo.
To Rick Wilson, a longtime Republican political consultant who has spent the past few months waging war on Trump’s candidacy, The Donald is something else entirely. In Wilson’s words, Trump is a “cancer,” an “epic douche canoe,” a “statist” with “a little delicious hint of fascism in the mix” whose presidential nomination will spell apocalypse for the Republican Party.
And that’s just the printable stuff.

Don’t you mean November 2015?
