At least that is the indication they give all of the time. There were strong anti-Trump elements in the RNC during the primaries, the establishment was rallying around any candidate that could beat him, and lackluster endorsements and even endorsements of Clinton are a sign that they know he is unelectable. If they thought he had a real shot they would be all over his ass like they were with Bush in 2004.Except For few of them this isn't about a moral obligation or a sense of duty, its pure survival and they know Trump is the worst major party candidate, possibly in U.S. history.
