I think the reasoning has changed a bit, though. At first, I think they were scared he had so much influence over most of the party that to cross him meant certain political death from blowback. Now, I think the calculus is more likely that he still holds enough sway with a certain number of voters that they are afraid those voters won't turn out at all if they go against Trump. Most of the party is fine with someone else, but you've got this diehard Trump group who just won't show up to vote if you're a "trader."
