hacked the RNC is enough to bring the entire party down. That could be why the RNC is paying Trump's legal fees and so many republicans have capitulated to him.

Even now it appears they are going down but they seem to be willing to go down this way rather than offend Trump. He is not so powerful anymore but the information he has could be. Just my musing.
