Michigan and other battleground states might have swung for Trump, but they elected environmentalists to U.S. Senate seats, too.

I’m going to answer your question as if you are being serious and are genuinely curious.
Heads up - 2026 Purple NC is also one of those states that often elects a senator from each party, so expect lots of ads during the race there. The beatings will continue until the color improves.
Double heads up - 2030 will be 2 years after the president who is elected after Trump (if that remains a thing). I’d say there’s a decent chance that the president will be a Dem unless someone can capture the same energy that DT rouses in certain demographics. That election cycle is usually one where the party in power gets trounced (though there are some exceptions), it also happens to be the year that the census occurs and redistricting takes place thereafter. The Rs won that fight last time. Following the trajectory I outlined, it’s likely the R’s will win it, again.
I still think folks may ignore judicial retention and the waste commissioner but I think most who vote for president also will vote on senate and house seats. I don’t think they do president and president only. Things were pretty gerrymandered in 2022, 2020, 2018, and so on.
