Along with some Trump voters believing their leaders and thinking their votes wouldn't count, the Biden-Perdue voters would not have appreciated their Senator cowardly falling in line with attempts to overturn their votes.
This is also very important, I think, in studying the Republican Party's failure here. Perdue clearly forgot or didn't appreciate that in November of last year, he became a Republican Senator in a Biden state. Not only that, but he nearly avoided a runoff thanks to Biden voters. To double-down on Trump in a state Trump lost was incredibly foolish on his part.
I agree.
I live in Texas and even though Trump performed better than any presidential candidate in Texas in terms of raw vote, Cornyn still outperformed him.
After that, it seems like Cornyn became a little less "Trumpy." Supposedly he is not going to object to the Biden win, but we shall see later on today.
Perdue and Loeffler probably should have distanced themselves from Trump. But they were in a no-win situation.
