That the GOP base is so pro-Trump that GOP candidates cannot to move away from him for fear of losing them, even though they know he is so unpopular and losing the middle. That the consultants understand the damage he is doing and do not like him but are nonetheless motivating by grievances about the media and the left (not a surprise to me -- I think it's the essence of conservatism -- but still was surprised to see it said in this context).
