I said two months ago that this was going to happen. Trump and his cult spent the last two months ranting about stolen election conspiracies and in Georgia, particularly, demonizing the state Republican Party and including them as part of the cabal instead of accepting their loss gracefully and working to hang on to those two Senate seats. The toxicity continued to sour the voters of Georgia and as a result they have handed the Senate over to Chuck Schumer. You people got exactly what you had coming to you for hitching your wagon to this horse.
With control of the Senate at stake in the state’s two races, the president chose to spend weeks peddling baseless claims that Georgia’s electoral system was rigged, fueling an online movement to boycott Tuesday’s election. He demonized the state’s Republican leaders and fractured the local GOP. He ignored calls from his allies to rally in the state sooner.

Fissures are forming as Republicans decide whether it's useful to cling to Trump — even as he tries to subvert an election — or to distance themselves.www.politico.com
