On this episode of The Enemies List, Rick is joined by his Resolute Square and Lincoln Project colleague, Stuart Stevens, former GOP strategist and author of “It Was All A Lie” and “The Conspiracy To End America.” They shine a light on the massive shadow cast by Donald Trump over the Republican Party and the primaries, as well as the futility of the Nikki Haley campaign.
