Do I wire the 2 ground wires from tail lights together or capture it up front on tongue wire? 1 tail light is mounted with a plastic license plate holder do I run the other white to other light?

I'd run the two white, ground wires together and then use a heavier gauge wire like part # 10-1-1 (10 gauge sold by the foot) to the front of the trailer to the main ground harness and you'd be good.
