Those in the hierarchy of the "little letter" do not give him any support. 

I think you just say it in a failed effort to belittle the poster. 

It's safe to say that what defense he does get from Republicans is almost entirely a result of his little letter, considering how many he insulted (and still got their endorsements), what god awful things he has said, the conspiracy theories he has pushed, and his record inexperience.

55% of the party is now stuck with what 45% elected. I'd say in this election more than ever, the majority of Republicans voters are backing this candidate solely because he's the Republican party's nominee against Hillary Clinton. If the minority within the Republican base that elected him was the only group defending him, his election hopes would be looking even more bleak than they look right now.
