Outspoken #NeverTrumper and columnist for the Daily Beast Rick Wilson declared his support for lynching fascists following the white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Wilson claims President Trump has “an itchy Twitter finger”, though he shouldn’t be one to talk. Wilson’s twitter resume is comprised of nasty messages for Trump supporters and inappropriate sexual remarks towards Ann Coulter.
Original story via Breitbart:
I like my fascists the old-fashioned way; dead, hanging from lamp-posts as we liberate their victims.

Wilson remained very vague as to who he considers to be a “fascist” in his tweet. This was not the first time the Never Trumper has branded the supporters of President Trump with the charged term.
It’s not virtue-signalling; it’s virtue to oppose both the lunatic proto-fascist Trump AND the chance he elects HRC. https://t.co/lMYUuRxPc6

In 2013 Wilson used the term “fascist” to describe the Obama “Youth Corps”:
Having a really nice fall night. Except for the creepy, crypto-fascist Obama Youth Corps propaganda.

Mr. Wilson seems to have a broad definition for who he deems to be a fascist. According to his questionable tweet he is sanctioning violence against a large group of people on the bases of political disagreement.
Additionally, in 2015 Wilson encouraged establishment Republican donors to “go out and put a bullet in Donald Trump.” Not to mention tweeting disgusting remarks towards Ann Coulter:
