This frightens me. It's their best strategy and if they do it, they will surely lose and I think they're okay with that. They want status quo in Washington. And I hope so much that there will be a rebellion, we need one.
This could be why Jeb is so confident in saying "Trump will NOT be the nominee".
The establishment Republicans don't want to break up the game.
They like the system as it is - Hell, they helped build it.
They just want to be the first pigs in line to get their snouts in the treasury and our pockets.
They would rather help the democrats win than bring in a reformer. and that is how they see Trump.
Trump may not be a conservative but he promises to upset the Good-Old-Boy system and that makes him the enemy of the DNC and the GOP.
