Good thread. Republicans aren't "coddling" the president. A minority are cynically adopting his arguments. Most are trying to figure out how to do the right thing without ratifying his stab-in-the-back narrative among voters who trust him more than them. https://twitter.com/LPDonovan/status/1326231934788366336

The "let him have his recounts and court filings" approach may fail because, well, Trump, but it's a strategy that has the internal health of the GOP in 2022 and 2024 in mind as much as the Georgia Senate races or anything else.

And if you hate and fear Trump you should want his political party, which shows absolutely no signs of being "burned to the ground," to figure out how to persuade its own voters that Trump is not a glorious martyr who deserves a glorious resurrection four years hence.
