Don't get me wrong, I am glad that it seems Cocaine Mitch will retain control of the Senate, and that the Rs elected more women in the House (though I wish the Q-adjacent conspiracy theorists had lost).
I am going to wager, though, that Ds will not self reflect and realize that the country is really moderate or slightly center-right and will think that the answer is MOAR PROGRESSIVISM. I mean, if Trump had not blown the first debate by being an asshole and then got COVID, he would have pulled this thing out.

I see more of a totally pure rural/urban split. I think Trump did all he could, but he simply does not have enough voters sympathetic to him or his party.
The votes in the cities carried the day for Biden. There are not enough bodies in the suburbs and rural areas to counter the cities. And people in the cities had nothing else to do, as half of them aren’t working because of Covid. Might as well vote.
