What I don’t get is how they think they get back control of the party after they have broken with it, assuming they succeed in defeating Trump in November.
I don’t think they’re thinking that far ahead. What’s right in front of their noses is the necessity to defeat Trump. War-monger, neo-con Hillary would be a far lesser evil, from their point of view. Open borders, middle-east wars that use Islamists as tools, hand-outs to businesses in which they are invested, what’s not to like?
