Pretty much. That was the plan in '08' and '12'.
Anything to keep the gravy train running for 'em; hey, even the Washington Generals get paid!
The problem is, if the GOPe selects Ryan, they KNOW that the grassroots will sit out the November election, thus causing the election of the democrat Witch.
The GOPe is then, effectively, choosing the Witch if they blow off either Cruz or Trump at the convention.
Yes, that's exactly what they aim to do. The more people understand that this is the intent, the better it can be fought. Here it is loud and clear:
The GOPe does not want to win. They want to consolidate their power and position within the DC establishment, and they cannot do that as long as a bunch of troublemakers are saying nasty things and picking fights with the Democrats. Driving the troublemakers from the party—conservatives politicians, Trump and Cruz followers—is the number one priority.With them gone, the GOPe goes back to being handsomely rewarded as the reliable opposition to the Democrats in the DC establishment which helps to sell to the public that the move toward bigger and bigger government is a battle rather than a fait accompli.
Losing the presidential election was the GOP plan all along. Jeb was the designated loser.
Pretty much. That was the plan in '08' and '12'.

“...thus causing the election of the democrat Witch.”
They do not care, as with the LAST TWO LOSSES they basically gave to the Rats (no-fight GOPe). They are fat and happy to keep lying, cheating and pandering to the far left...friends of Obama, et al.
