Cooper would have a better chance than whoever the Democrats put up in WI and would have been slightly favored in another Trump midterm, but a Senate campaign after two years of a D trifecta in a very R-leaning environment will expose him as the generic D/reliable D vote that he is. Walker wins by ~4 points.
I’d also add that Cooper was extremely overrated in 2016 -- very few people expected the race to be as close as it was, and you could argue that Republicans could have won it if they had gone nuclear on him (which they would in 2022 if he were to run for Senate).
