      If D’s win and Trump takes the blame, he may have cost R donors hundreds of billions in taxes, more aggressive appointees on the regulatory front, a raft of judges, and various ideological budget priorities. That’s the kinda thing that might affect dynamics within the party.

      That would be a big contrast to the immediate post-loss reaction, when even Trump skeptical R’s seemed psyched about the possibility of marrying his base with more suburban palatable candidates in 2022 and beyond. Suddenly there would be an actual cost.

      You’re not gonna see the relevant people “blame” Trump out loud necessarily even if this is the case. But influential R’s that roll their eyes at election conspiracies are going to notice things like this.https://twitter.com/karlbykarlsmith/status/1346674325827551237 …

      Suburbs, my friends, the suburbs. I feel like a one trick pony but here we are again. We went from talking about jobs and the economy to Qanon election conspiracies in 4 short years and - as it turns out- they were listening!

      Emotions running high among McConnell-aligned Republicans early Wednesday am — after reality of what transpired in Georgia settled in. May be the heat of the moment, but mood is for declaring war on Team Trump. Want to marginalize Trump as they marginalized Steve Bannon in 2017

      Turning point in attitudes among allies of @realDonaldTrump. A current paid Trump adviser this a.m: “Trump f----ed the party. He f----ed the party with his conspiracy theories and pushing females and independents away from the party. The bleeding needs to stop. He needs to go.”

      To clarify: Of course, by definition, true believer Trump supporters will be true believer Trump supporters. As of yesterday, though, the world of R Trump support was MUCH larger than that and included many transactional players. You're seeing a lotta blind quotes from them now.

          Let's say Trump wants to run again. Or back his son. This could be the difference between those players thinking "Great, it worked before and the base loves him" or at least staying neutral. Now more motivation to head it off from the start and make it a tougher path earlier.
