GOP warned Trump 'chaos' will make Dems competitive in districts 'we can't even imagine'



During a segment on MSNBC on Saturday morning about what the Democratic party needs to do to get back on track with voters, a former GOP House member suggested Donald Trump is giving them a helping hand.

Speaking with the hosts of "The Weekend," ex-Rep Joe Walsh (R-IL) took the side of newly-elected DNC Vice Chair David Hogg who wants to oust some longtime House Democrats with younger candidates in safe districts to shake-up the party.

"That's all inside baseball," Walsh, a harsh Donald Trump critic admitted before adding, "Look, I'm not a Democrat. The Democratic party brand is in the toilet; they need to be shaken up, they need to fight I want to see the Democratic party fight."

"I want to see new blood," he continued. "Some of this old blood needs to go retire. This is good for the Democratic party. I think what David Hogg is proposing is going to change the change the subject, as it should."

As the segment began to close, he offered a warning to Republicans.

"Look, just one quick final thought," he stated. "Because of the madness and the chaos and the disaster that is Trump, Democrats are going to be competitive in districts and states this year, next year that we can't even imagine right now."

"So doggone it, field candidates, get active, spend money everywhere," he suggested.
