It's not just the Senate, it's...
-control of state legislatures, who gerrymander the house and pass voter suppression laws, which allows them to
-control the presidency and the Senate, who can
-appoint sympathetic supreme court justices who
-rubberstamp the state's voter suppression.
It's a closed loop and the only hope, really, was that a generational fuckup of a candidate would happen to drag down Republicans in a year where redistricting was on the line. This loop is why some democrats were so adamant about court packing. It was the only way to stop Republicans from running away with the game.
It's all just playing out the string now.
