    Default Walker’s loss in Ga. spurs new GOP hand-wringing, calls for new strategy

    Herschel Walker’s loss in a pivotal Georgia Senate race Tuesday has renewed Republican calls to break with former president Donald Trump and rethink the party’s strategy ahead of 2024, as lawmakers and operatives reckoned with the final blow in a profoundly disappointing midterm cycle.

    The recriminations were swift as Republicans began the autopsy of Walker’s race on Wednesday, sparring over who and what cost them the seat. Many blamed Trump for urging Walker, a former football star with no political experience and a slew of allegations about his personal life, to run for the Senate against Democratic Sen. Raphael G. Warnock, betting on his celebrity in a high-stakes midterm election in which Republicans needed to net just one seat to take the majority.

    This is about the 800th time Trump is supposedly on the verge of losing the loyalty of the party.

    After a couple weeks of introspection, Republicans will just crawl back to Trump on their hands and knees.

    Looks like Democrats did fine in recent election. A 51 to 49 count in the Senate giving them more power. Of course, the House was lost. But the GOP House will accomplish nothing.
