There are elements in the party that are verging on the same level of stupidity as Trump but I think its more he's helping drag the party towards him rather than them pushing him. His more extreme policies are still being opposed by substantial numbers of Republican politicians as well as Democrat ones.
This could change after this autumn's elections as a lot of Republicans are retiring and you could get more extremists riding in on his coat-tails but we will have to see what happens.
