They know that, which is why the Republican Party will nominate Trump.
History, I believe, will judge it a myth of our day that Trump had control over the Republican Party; the exact opposite is true. It is the Party elites who controlled him. Trump is a master of quid pro quo; he gave the Conservatives in the Senate exactly what they wanted, a wagon train of Federalist society picked judges, no questions asked.
That's why they (secretly) love him; he gets things done that they want done. They will Rinse & Repeat for (just) one more term.
