Trump knows a loser when he sees one, and once Brooks was disloyal the former president had an easy call to make. With this seat a lock for the GOP, Trump knows he'll have another loyalist in the Senate come 2023.
This is the immoral state of the GOP. If you're not a servile stooge to Trump and his election lies, you get dumped in the blink of an eye. Where this will take democracy, no one knows.
