16. Within the small demographic that they have left, Trump embodies a large percentage.

Go figure.

I think they'll use Trump as a pinata.
See the idea? They bash the pinata to demonstrate that they're different from it.

In the end, the GOP will choose someone "centrist", investment banker and war friendly to ensure profiteering, but they won't have to defend that against Hillary Clinton. So with Hillary Clinton they get a free ride. They'll be wanting a free-for-all in the arena of abstract "social values" where they can easily imagine something like a jellybean eating white hat wearing cowboy riding in to the rescue of the USA.
