McKay Coppins, staff writer for The Atlantic, talks with Alex Wagner about the peculiar psychology that causes some Republicans to offer their support for Donald Trump despite being open about Trump's overwhelming shortcomings and despite knowing full well that Trump's fickle sense of loyalty means he is still just as likely to stab them in the back, endorsement or not.
