Throughout the Republican primary, Donald Trump’s ace in the hole was his obvious willingness to burn the Grand Old Party to the ground on his way out the door if he didn’t receive its presidential nomination.

Every time things started to look bad for the former reality television star, he began suggesting the existence of a vast conspiracy against him that delegitimized the entire primary process.

He repeatedly claimed that the Republican National Committee was working against him, telling his supporters at rally after rally that the primary system was “rigged” and tacitly approving of surrogates who urged massive protests at the RNC convention in Cleveland if Trump didn’t get the nod. He frequently implied that he didn’t consider himself bound by a pledge that he had signed, along with all the other candidates, not to run as a third-party nominee if he did not win the GOP primary.

Trump knew, as did every member of the GOP establishment, that he had the power to cause a massive schism that would effectively end the Republican Party as it currently exists. Trump never had a true majority of the Republican electorate behind him in the primaries, but he owned the loyalty of a major demographic group -- less-educated white men -- that the GOP is dependent on for electoral success.
