The recurring theme, from Republicans inside and outside the White House: resignation.
They know a Trump reset isn’t coming.
“He is who he is. People know who he is. You think he’s going to change?” said @SenRickScott

What continues to amaze Rs, though, is how consumed Trump is w primary voters.
Knowing this, his staff soothes him by trumpeting his W-L record - and wields it as a cudgel on the hill
The WH emailed @NRSC w a msg for Senate chiefs

The message read:
“Good afternoon,
After last night’s election results, candidates endorsed by President Trump are now 64-0 in Congressional special and primary elections since the midterms – clearly demonstrating the strength of and support for President Trump’s agenda across our country”

Trump has not made the connex on mask-economy, Rs lament:
"I would think the president would be on the air hammering his base to get the economy back and win the election" by talking about importance of masking, said @MittRomney

There's a circular element to staffing Trump. They try to soothe him by playing up metrics such as crowd size + W=L record in primaries.
But that only draws attention & builds expectations.
So when they fall short and drew negative coverage *more* soothing is required
