Is the GOP really going to let Baldwin coast to reelection with no significant opposition and then Rs here tell me on every thread I'm underestimating the Rs in the Senate? If you guys aren't going to even try to knock off Baldwin I think saying Rs face a 52-53ish seat cap in 2024 and will struggle to even hit that is increasingly reasonable.
I think Trump winning with a Democratic Senate is an increasingly plausible outcome given the Emerson polls (showing Brown/Tester outrunning Trump by enough to probably win and showing Florida close at the Presidential level) and the speakership debacle. Likely, the coming recession will hurt Biden, but Democrats downballot might be able to rise above it anyway by projecting a general sense of competence.

It's worth pointing out that a 50-50 Senate with Trump President gets tiebroken to an R Senate (though it'd be a super awkward one with Trump needing Collins and Murkowski for everything).
I'm thinking in the best case, Democrats hold MT/OH, and flip FL due to the abortion referendum, age depolarization, and Social Security. Emerson already shows Brown/Tester outrunning Biden by probably enough, and it also shows FL very close while Trump is winning in the other swing states comfortably.
