i dont buy itThey're bringing up an interesting point on CNN right now:
I wonder if one of the reasons Biden has got a historic amount of the popular vote but Dems got destroyed down ballot is because people were sick of Trump, but wanted Republicans to keep him in check because they didn't want Dems to pack the court or do any of the other agendas they floated.
maybe a few people did this but maine was the only state to split between biden and a republican senator. the house races are dems coming back to earth after they crushed the midterms with less republican turnout. now with trump on the ticket turnout is higher and they are losing in redder districts (most of which are still gerrymandered)
if trump got blown out like we were expecting dems would be doing much better in both chambers
