1, As awful as Biden is, he still has around 41% support due to party loyalty. Party loyalty will bring in many Democrats.
2, Republicans are fractured and have many weak candidates.
3, Even Herschel Walker is in a close race and he is popular in Georgia.
4, Many individual races are neck and neck.
5, Look at Michigan, Democrats blocked Michigan's best Republican Candidate from getting on the ballot, probably because he is a black conservative and Biden is hostile to them openly telling them that they aren't black.
6, 5 months is a long time in politics.
7, wedge issues like abortion and guns will rile up the liberal base.
8, 2000 mules.
9, Early voting.
10, Republicans have a poor message.
11, Trump has his supporters, but he has millions who despise him and his connection to the party still hurts.
New poster who joined in the last week. Seems to me like you are a Dem operative.
Voters in my state destroyed the Republican sponsored amendment C and are going to legalize marijuana (again) this November, and Kristi Noems reelection is far from certain. That's what they get for using the courts to throw out legal marijuana. We are libertarians and we like our freedom. I don't know if I'll vote democrat in November because Noem at least let us have Delta 8... Had she banned that she'd be gone.
I did vote no on C. Bottom line both parties can irritate their voters.
There will be a red wave though. Democrats are a train wreck. I don't know if I'd trust giving one power in my state regardless of how moderate they are.
Why would any conservative vote for Obama because of his skin color? That goes against conservative principles. That's like voting for a woman because she has nice racks and a deep tan or a lesbian.
My friends were not movement conservatives, i.e. Goldwater and William F. Buckley fan types, but "fairly conservative" as I said; meaning they were fiscally conservative, maybe voted for Reagan, but not Bush II and would have voted for McCain against Hillary, but they had some romantic liberal notions on race relations and thought Obama would have us all holding hands, singing "I'd like to teach the world to sing.." and all the divisions would melt away.
I agree we need the sunny optimism of Reagan in the GOP. We just have to figure out how to get half of the GOP out of Trump's rear end to see the light.

I voted for him in 2020. But only because i had no other option
Yes, you did.
You could have voted third party, written someone in, or left the POTUS slot blank.
After banning abortion, Republicans want to interfere in your bedroom by banning birth control, including even condoms. Republicans are only running on a prayer. Democrats are blamed for everything that is bad, especially inflation. Why bother voting in November? If I vote, I think I'll only vote for 3rd party candidates to protest how bad the Republicans and Democrats are.
I hate to say it, but the biggest threat to a Red Wave is Donald Trump. The Republic party needs to quietly distance themselves from Trump. If they did, there will be a Red Tsunami.
"I hate to say it,"
No you DON'T!
"The Republic party needs to quietly distance themselves from Trump"
Vast majority of Americans are tired of Wokeism. However the emergence of Roe V Wade and gun control will dampen what would've been a massive red tsunami.
Please provide you record in the prediction category.
PSSST, what is the next LOTTO number?
