Former George H. W. Bush consultant Rick Wilson lashed out at Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow tonight on CNN accusing Breitbart.com of being the “Pravda” for Donald Trump.
Despite Rick Wilson’s insults Alex Marlow probably delivered the sharpest blows. Breitbart reported:
The two men, before addressing each other, established a stark contrast with the other’s view.
Wilson defended Bush on several questions and, unprompted, said: “I don’t work for Jeb Bush, and I’m not here to advocate specifically for him.” All the while, he threw a few bombs at Trump. “Every one of these pressers this guy does is a dumpster fire… most of the things that come out of Donald Trump’s mouth have almost no relationship to the truth under any circumstances. He just makes it up.” He wrapped up with a comparison of Trump’s talking point on forcefully taking Iraq’s oil to a “drunk dad at the local corner bar talking smack.”…
…Marlow challenged Wilson and impugned him as part of the “consultant class” disconnected from the conservative grassroots:
You see the reason why Trump has so much more momentum is actually because of commentary like Rick’s, where we respectfully disagree. But Rick is from this consultant class, from the GOP establishment, and so much of the grassroots are not interested in what they have to say and the direction they’re leading us. Leading us towards Jeb, a guy with no energy, that doesn’t get the grassroots fired up. What gets the grassroots fired up is Trump staying on immigration, being media savvy, calling people out repeatedly–people are loving it. Whether or not you’re happy about that, that’s up to you, but people are loving it.

You mean GOPe puppet accuses Breitbart...
And this is exactly why Donald Trump is getting so much support. He relates to the common man. Seemingly impossible for a billionaire, yet, he does it.
MSM just waking up to the fact that they’re not the only game in town.
I’ve seen that guy bashing Trump before.
Andrew Breitbart was not a fan.
Rick Wilson, Florida based GOP media guy, and supports Jeb Bush.
GrOPE Wilson writing for the Politico last month.
“Greetings, Donald Trump super fans. I am a member of the GOP establishment. I’m writing to tell you that, no matter how much you wish it otherwise, the Donald Trump candidacy is almost over.”
We could accuse the MSM of being the "Pravda" for ObaMao, but that would be unfair to Pravda. Pravda dared criticize the Politboro once in awhile.
The truth of the matter is that if Trump isn’t elected Marlow will still have a job, but if Trump IS elected Wilson probably won’t. So his constant attacks on Breitbart are disingenuous, at best.
He’s a star, what’s not to love.
LOL
Progressives are getting their underwear in a bundle.
Trump - speaking truth to power.
CCCCCCRRRRRRRRRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUUUUZZZZZZZZZZZ
“Wilson is the turd on the left.”
Quite from OVER TWO YEARS AGO:
“GOP Consultant Rick Wilson: Time For Republicans To Move On From Same Sex Marriage Debate”
Am so tired of media pretending to be fair and balanced by sitting a Gopee operative against a Donkey. When will they give we the people a chance to respond
Interesting that Mr. Wilson doesn’t see to have a profile anywhere on the web (that I can find at least). That doesn’t mean he’s gay, like many (or most) of Bush’s past ‘advisers’, but it doesn’t rule it out either.
We all follow politics, This guy I never heard of, so he must be a nobody who had something to do with Jeb in Florida.
He doesn’t deserve our attention , Yawn
Specific and to the core of our problems today.
Jebby as a comparison wants full amnesty and open borders. Stupid.
What I got out of the article was Daddy was upset because Trump is getting all the attention and his little Jebby is getting crumbs...
BoooHoooo.....
