EXPLORE MORE The Trump election nightmare is now complete: Herschel Walker lost an eminently winnable Georgia Senate race to far-left Rev. Raphael Warnock Tuesday. The vote vastly augments
Dem power in the Senate via a 51-seat majority — there’s no need to appease Joe Manchin on every big bill any longer; judicial confirmations become far easier. So average Americans should
brace for more pain, courtesy of our whiny former president. Walker was a Trump candidate through and through. More or less hand-picked by The Donald, Walker proved unable to make a
coherent case for himself. And so he lost by almost three points to Warnock in a state that saw massive GOP margins elsewhere: eight points in Brian Kemp’s gov victory, nine points in the
secretary of state contest, etc. It’s yet more proof that Trump can’t pick winners, and that his endorsement is politically toxic. But there’s more blame to go around: Ronna Romney
McDaniel, the RNC chair who has overseen three bloody cycles for the GOP now, also deserves a truckload. She’s another Trump pick. Now nominally independent of him, she made no real effort
to counteract his malign influence on the GOP’s national political strategy. And Republicans have less hope of a 2024 recovery with her “leading” them. Our pick is Rep. Lee Zeldin — who
delivered a red typhoon in New York state and handed the GOP a House majority, but says he won’t run as long as McDaniel has her re-election locked in, thanks to insider politics-as-usual.
Yet the party of Lincoln needs new blood. It’s time to move past Trump and his useless apparatchiks. If McDaniel really cares about the future of the country, she’ll vanish of her own
accord.
