When Never Trumper and Lincoln Project co-founder Rick Wilson went on Stephen Colbert's parody news show on Monday night, Tooning Out the News, it would be a reasonable assumption that he probably looked forward to the interview. After all since the interviewers would be cartoon characters, it would probably be a lot of fun. Plus, since Stephen Colbert suffers from every bit as much of Trump Derangement Syndrome as Wilson he could expect it to be a friendly interview as well.
What could go wrong? Well, everything. As you can see, by the end of interview, poor Wilson was stunned into sullen silence.

The video at the link is MUST SEE. I have never seen someone so humiliated and stunned during an interview. They hit Wilson from the left but I don't care since they exposed him as a huckstering money-grubbing grifter with his anti-Trump Lincoln Project scam.

Rick Wilson and other NeverTrump worms deserve contempt from all sides. Glad to see he’s getting it.
To: PJ-Comix
Pretty funny seeing them turn on Wilson.

If this is true, then "The Lincoln Project" literally has RUSSIAN funding:

Good. They need to know that they are now hated by everyone except for the tiny cadre of people in the USA who still think Bush was a good President.

Wilson actually flinched when, after the fact that the Lincoln Project spent over 89% of its money on overhead (including salaries) was brought up, one of the cartoon characters noted that “89.3% on overhead sounds like a lot but I can’t get into the right head space to make a ten second ad without wolfing down endangered mollusks in a titanium catamaran with my Bush administration buddies.”
Chuckle.

They’re not your friends, Rick you traitorous weasel.

This brought a smile to my face. Wilson was fuming.

Excellent catch, PJ. I have forwarded the MRC link to family and friends.

You lie down with dogs and you get up with fleas. One of the oldest stories in the book, but as I said before it is not Donald Trump liberals hate it is conservatives, even wishy washy ones and they hate with a white hot passion.
To: PJ-Comix
Guess Rick Wilson thought he was safe... they shared hatred of Trump... Soon he’d be invited to the cool parties and get good press.
What a fool...

Wilson also flinched when when of the cartoon characters showed an old Rick Wilson tweet calling the Netroots Nation folks “pathetic little whores” and then followed up by asking him “Rick, when was the exact moment you realized those pathetic little whores could be tapped for money?”

He did NOT look happy at the end of that.
I’ll bet he’s already plotting whose heads will roll.

What a freaking dumbass. The phrase “hoist by his own petard” certainly applies here.

People who profit from tearing people down will turn on their “buddies” when no one else is available. Colbert is a worm. He will always act like a worm.

Dude. That was one of the funniest things I've seen in a while. The look on his face at the end was priceless.

That was hilarious. I am really surprised the Colbert cartoons had the integrity to not cozy up to Wilson just because he is anti-Trump. They definitely did not take the approach of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". It was more like "yeah, we hate Trump too, but you're still a republican (albeit RINO) asshole".
Nobody trusts a traitor.
