Yes, it is entirely possible that Republicans in 2026:
-Gain House Seats
-Gain Senate Seats
-Gain Governors Mansions
Dems aren't ready for this conversation.
A "blue wave" for them in reality would end up being a narrow House majority, 49 Senate seats, and a narrow net loss of governorships (maybe they break even if you include Virginia in 2025). That's just how the map works.
Trump is not unpopular, and while people online are seething about him--the real world electorate is a different story. Given what happens in Wisconsin next month, it's entirely possible that the Democrats are just exhausted. That's not going to stop anytime soon.
Also, keep in mind Biden had a below water approval rating in 2022 and the inflation rate was at its peak. We all know how that went.
And Dems boxing themselves into the whole egg prices thing is on par with Republicans doing the same with gas prices. Neither were the full scope of the cost of living crisis, and Biden tapped into the emergency reserves to calm fears about the latter.
