Republicans are completely depressed. They had really believed their own bullshit, and have to face the fact that election denial is a big loser and abortion rights is a big winner. And yet, they’ve now spent two years convincing their base that the 2020 election was stolen, and they can’t get the Supreme Court to put Roe v. Wade back in the bottle.

They’re pointing fingers, blaming one another in angry outbursts. And even Donald Trump is getting slammed. He in turn has had an ongoing meltdown all week, embroiled in perhaps the most dire situation he’s had to face, and lashing out at other Republicans.
