Mr Wimmer told RT: “When you see the situation in Washington, I think they are not willing, those who lost the election, to accept the new president whose name is Trump… What’s going on in Washington sounds like the beginning of a civil war.”
Senator John McCain is leading the charge of politicians determined to stop Mr Trump from ditching the current foreign policy, Mr Wimmer argued.
He said: “There is a network of resistance against the President who will be in office on the 20th of January and I think when you look at the reality in Europe, people of all our European countries – they want to live in good relations with the Russian Federation.

“There is no hostility between Russia and Europe, the hostility is organised in a very artificial way and it is the same way of organising hostilities as we see nowadays against Trump.”
Mr Wimmer said the establishment’s smear campaign is in full tilt with a week to go until Mr Trump moves into the White House.
The president-elect held his first press conference in months yesterday.
He furiously denied unverified allegations that Russian security officials have video footage of the president-elect with prostitutes in a Moscow hotel room.

Mr Wimmer said the smear campaign aims to “just to make it impossible for the new US President to go for a better policy, not leave as a warmonger as others did.
“This makes it very clear that there’s a network of Democratic and Republican war establishment in Washington and they are not willing to accept the ballots.”
As tensions escalate between Mr Trump, the intelligence services and Russia, making these the “most dramatic days we have in our lifetime”, Mr Wimmer accused the establishment of warmongering.
He said: “Now we are in a situation that everything they do, everything which can be done also with regard of the next German elections is to find reasons to go for conflict or even to go for a war.”
His comments come as Mr Trump acknowledged for the first time that Russia likely hacked the Democratic National Committee and the emails of top Democrats during the 2016 presidential election.
Moscow has denied targeting the US election and any links to the 35-page dossier compiled by a former MI6 agent containing unverified allegations that Russian security officials have compromising material on Mr Trump that could be used to blackmail him.
