Every time they lose a race, they refuse to concede. From Roy Moore to Trump and now Perdue who all refused to concede when they lost.

Probably for the same reason why Democrats are such pessimistic winners

Because Trump brings out the worst in everyone.

The GOP needs to take these loses as signs that Trumpism is going to doom them.  They need to be humbled right now and examine what they can do to salvage their party from Trump’s grasp.

Republicans have spent the last four years self deluding themselves that they're the silent majority, that their critics are just triggered internet entities that don't exist in real life, and reveling in their opponents being unable to actually do anything to stop their policies.

Now, with elections, that reality has come crashing down and many are cognitively unable to fathom that the things they "knew" for the last four years might actually be wrong, or that they've emotionally and financially invested themselves in a fraud.

Because they have an issue with democracy.

Because since 2015, the Republican brand has been heavily linked with "strength". Which requires never giving up and putting a show every time you lose

Because for a large number of Americans, transfer of power to and governance by the other party is fundamentally incompatible with much of their entire worldview and identity as a person

Because they're fascists.

Republicans see democracy, our Republic, as a tool they can use to gain power, not as a process we've all agreed to follow because it's better than any alternatives. Republicans are bad faith participants in America.

They take one part of Christianity and call it Evangelism and wear it on their sleeve and that's not all what Christianity is about. Jesus Christ said your reward is in Heaven not on Earth and Rs like Trump get benefit off cutting social programs and giving tax cuts to the rich.

That's how they have won 16(20 Elections
Eisenhower was the best R there was just like Limcoln
