THe GOP would be stupid to throw away Trump's popularity with their base.
They will do what they did in 1980: Marry the populist (Reagan) with an insider (Bush) and dog-whistle to their establishment that Trump won't make any really meaningful decisions (that aren't supported by the insiders).
It's a tried and true winner. The last brokered convention was 50+ years ago without today's retail politics.
