What is 'the establishment' really? Is there some core unified group? I'm sure there are some major powerbrokers, the type of folks who might have wanted to see Jeb Bush win the nomination or some other more typical candidate.I do see how Republicans could do some unusual things to keep a man from winning who insults people left and right, who suggested going after terrorists' families and taking oil as tribute from countries that we invade.I don't know the rules, but if there is some way the candidates who didn't get the most votes can give them all to someone besides Trump, maybe it will turn out for the best. They might alienate the radical pro-Trump segment. But if the math works out so that there are more swing voters and non-Trump Republicans in the electorate and Cruz or Kasich or whoever they settle on can beat Hillary (or Sanders if that worked out), then it makes sense to go for it. It reminds me of Andrew Jackson. Jackson was the type of man that a lot of people in positions of influence thought absolutely should not be president of the United States. He campaigned the next time complaining about the 'corrupt bargain' and won it. Trump's getting kind of old for the next go round, IMO, if it doesn't work out this way
