Why did Rick Wilson call Matt Gaetz a 'whiny b***h'? Internet says Lincoln Project founder 'uplifted the soul'

'Twitter and Facebook aren’t banning you because you’re a conservative, they're banning you because you suck'

Rick Wilson, the co-founder of the Lincoln Project, is not holding back anymore. As the world greets the news of Donald Trump's second impeachment with mixed emotions, swinging between glee and anger, longtime Republican political consultant Wilson appeared on MSNBC to share his opinion on Trump's MAGA supporters. And he made sure to not use kind words. 

"This whiny b***h victimhood from Matt Gaetz and Ken Buck and Jim Jordan and Marjorie Taylor ‘Cuckoo QAnon’ Greene and all these other people — it’s the most pathetic example of special pleading I’ve ever seen," he said on the network. Following the Capitol riots of January 6, Trump, his family and his supporters noticed that their follower count had decreased. This was because the social media site went into overdrive deleting hundreds and thousands of conspiracy theory accounts. Of the many who complained about this was Republican lawmaker Matt Gaetz.

"They act as if they’ve been oppressed somehow, that the world is against them somehow. Well, guess what? Twitter and Facebook aren’t banning you because you’re a conservative. They’re banning you because you suck. They’re banning you because you say evil s**t. They’re banning you because you support a revolution against the government of this country and a free and fair election. This is the most remarkable thing about this to me is all these tough guys, swagger monkeys, who act like they’re the big alpha males — they’re whining and b******g and moaning about Kathy Griffin holding up a mannequin head? Or Nancy Pelosi tearing up a piece of paper? C’mon, guys, toughen up!”

In fact, he also had things to say about Donald Trump. "Donald Trump is the leader of a terrorist faction of a terrorist group that terrorized the Congress... A lot of the rest of them are living in stark terror that Donald Trump’s mob will come and kill them." Since he has been dropping all these truth bombs, it looks like Wilson is the new favorite guy around. "Rick Wilson letting it fly with Joy Reid tonight... Completely awesome the way he just DESTROYED Jordan, Gaetz, et al... Bravo, Rick!," one tweeted along with a clip of Wilson calling conservatives out. "I’m all for Rick Wilson calling Matt Gaetz a whiny b***h who says evil s**t. I’m all for that truth bomb," another added. "Rick Wilson speaking for so many of us. I resent even having to be subjected to gaetz, jordan, greene, et al in any way, shape or form. they embarrass my country," another added and yet one user chimed in: "Absolute FIRE! 'whiney little b*****s' is giving my soul some definite uplifting today! Thank you for everything you do!!!
