Not surprising. The GOP completely blew off the anger of the Tea Party (after using it to get them elected), and have spent the last 8 months telling us Trump was gonna fizzle out any minute now. If these guys spent as much time with their constituents as they do with lobbyists and donors, they might just get a clue....
They have a clue, they just don't care. The amount of money these guys can make after being out of office makes them above all normal concerns. So the establishments plan is always to ride the wave then simply corrupt whoever gets elected with money and the promise of money.
The problem for them is that Trump is completely immune to money or intimidation and they are really worried at what might happen if they lose control.
