It won’t be the GOP by name.
It’ll be the big money donors. They pick a guy and back him.
If Cruz is the nominee, they can just stop the money flow and defeat Cruz that way. Trump is tougher. They’d have to split the vote most likely.
They want to keep control over the purse strings (1.1 trillion a year).
You think they’re going to risk losing that?
Why not just throw the big money behind Clinton!?
