Exactly. Won't do anything drastic, stupid, or revolutionary. Will have
to work with at least a hostile House.
Also will make for a good bad guy, setting their candidates up for the 2018 midterms and the general in 2020 when they can run someone they actually like and think will advance their interests -- and has a snowball's chance in hell of winning (Ryan).
It all makes perfect sense.
Trump and Cruz are legitimate threats to the Kochs' hold on the Republican Party. Trump because, quite frankly, he doesn't need them and won't be the least bit inclined to kiss their asses. Cruz because he's an extremist whackjob and, if enabled as POTUS, literally could destroy the economy the way similarly minded nuts have on the state level. Rubio and Jeb were their boys this time around and both sucked; time to hit reset.
