> This is electionist cope. The elections are decided in a handful of states with narrow margins.
And the other guy's point was that the backlash against Trump is significant enough that this time around elections may not be decided that way. As evidence: A Texas district that was Republican for 25 years, that voted Republican by a 17% margin in November 2024, just elected a Democrat by 14% (after he'd already won by 12% in November 2025).
This is separate from the obvious fact that House seats are decided in district elections and are all up for grabs this year.
