Republicans are spitting out the MAGA Kool-Aid while MSNBC is grabbing more popcorn.
Members of an afternoon panel on the network were in stitches after a montage aired featuring the GOP's quick fall from election grace.
The video showed some GOP candidates and party leaders showing deference to former President Donald Trump's winning bravado in pre-election swagger clips.
They were then contrasted with a heavy dose of humility in the concession or day-after defeat commentary.
Former gubernatorial candidate and Kentucky's Republican Attorney General Daniel Cameron stood before supporters before Nov. 7 nodding to the 45th president.
"A big thank you to president Donald J. Trump for his support and his endorsement of this campaign," he said. "Let me just say, let me just say, the Trump culture of winning is alive and well in Kentucky."
Then a fat animated X flashed over him in freeze-frame with a loud buzzer sound, and the clip skips to the night of his election loss to incumbent Gov. Andy Beshear by five percentage points or 67,174 votes.
"Well, that didn't turn out exactly how I wanted it to," Cameron said on stage to a hushed crowd.
Virginia Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin could then be seen sporting a red fleece vest and chanting, "Hold the House, flip the Senate!" multiple times.
"We know how to do this," he continued. "We learned in 2021 how to win elections."
Again, another cartoon X appears on screen, clearly signaling his inability to inhibit abortion rights.
In what appeared to be the next day, Youngkin is dressed in a smart suit in Richmond, the state capital of the Commonwealth, sounding much more reserved in a standup television interview.
"So I look forward to working with the House and the Senate going forward just like we have," he said.
Trump is then appearing at a rally, in a signature red MAGA cap and predicting red wave.
"We're going to have a red wave," he is heard proclaiming. "They call it the great red wave like nobody has ever seen before.
"It's really amazing. And I think we're winning. I think we'll win everything."
A third X appears.
As a conclusion, the network played a clip from Newsmax where one of the anchors announces the elephant in the room after Nov. 7 results favored mostly Democratic candidate and policies: "It does seem like the Republican party generally has a real problem with winning."
Nicolle Wallace is then seen trying to hold back her laughs while former Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) almost falls off her chair with a case of the giggles.
Wallace then chimes in: "It happens to everybody, I would say. I've worked on winning and losing campaigns."
"I've been the one that had to walk out and explain what went wrong."
She then explained how there "something rich" about investing in Trump's MAGA red wave prediction that didn't come to pass.
