Why did the election go wrong for the GOP? Bad message? Bad candidates? Donald Trump? How about 'all of the above'?

 
HeadlineNew York Times, 11/11/2022
“As a party, we found ourselves consistently navigating the power struggle between Trump and anti-Trump factions of the party, mostly within the donor class,” Paul Cordes, the Michigan Republican Party’s chief of staff, wrote in a memo on Thursday. 
He continued: “That power struggle ended with too many people on the sidelines and hurt Republicans in key races. At the end of the day, high-quality, substantive candidates and well-funded campaigns are still critical to winning elections. We struggled in both regards to the detriment of Michiganders across the state.”


Fasten your seat belt, Paul. It's going to be a long and bumpy night of terror with Trump in a constantly aggrieved state.
