Trump has now cost Republicans three Georgia senate races in two years, which is remarkable given that Georgia is a predominantly Republican state which has only two senators.

They took it as a teachable moment, and developed a long-term, generational plan to seize and hold the wealth and the power.

Now, for many years the Right has been working to buy and control state legislatures. They gained around a thousand seats during Obama.
One reason is to force a Constitutional Convention, and they're only a few states short at this time.
Another is to achieve something like Moore v. Harper, so a bought state legislature can hold the ultimate power.
They'll dump Trump, use him for a fall guy, and move the next puppet forward.

This is the original typewritten manuscript. Many discussions and analyses can be found online.
The Right was willing to sacrifice Nixon in favor of long-term power.
