Dick Morris to Newsmax TV: Brokered Dem Convention Could Trigger 'Civil War'

A brokered Democratic convention could trigger a “civil war” the party “will never recover from,” strategist and author Dick Morris told Newsmax TV.

In an interview on “Greg Kelly Reports,” Morris, a onetime adviser to President Bill Clinton, said the divisions in the party are visible as prospective presidential candidates debate and the primaries and caucuses begin to parcel out delegates.

He said if the divisions remain when it comes time for the delegates to go to the party convention, “it will be a civil war. The Democratic Party will never never recover from it.”

“Warren's [delegate] votes plus [votes for] Bernie [Sanders -Vt.] will be enough probably for a majority at the convention,” he added. “I think that if Bernie is a candidate not only will [Democrats] lose the election… the Republicans have a shot at 60 senators.”
