Former Fox News political editor warns GOP that Trump wants to keep them 'hopelessly divided and exploitable'

Raw Story  

Former Fox News political editor Chris Stirewalt on Wednesday issued a warning for Republicans who think they can appease former President Donald Trump. "You hear Kevin Cramer and you hear some of these other people talk about how Donald Trump is going to want to do what's good for the Republican Party -- I don't think that's what Donald Trump's going to do," Stirewalt said. The former Fox employee went on to talk about Trump's future designs for the GOP should the party continue to appease him. "Trump is trying to figure out how can he exploit this in a way that will keep the Republican Party hopelessly divided, and therefore exploitable, because he needs this issue," he said.
