A lot of voters apparently did not forget the shameful behavior of January 6, and it showed in the polls. Frankly, with the high inflation and interest rate hikes, this should have been a Red Wave. Instead, you got a light flow menstrual cycle. And I think it would have been red wave, if it weren't for all of candidates who jumped on the election-denial bandwagon. The good news for the GOP is two-fold: 1) it looks like they will still take the House and the Senate isn't settled issue, and 2) they have a golden opportunity to unburden themselves from the yoke of Trump's hate and lies and head in a more respectable direction.
Rand Paul and Rubio are bad enough as the "normal republicans" and they just got re-elected as senators.
A bunch of senators who spent the 4th of July in Moscow not long after http://apps.washingtonpost.com/g/page/politics/the-intelligence-community-report-on-russian-activities-in-the-2016-election/2153/ John Kennedy, Ron Johnson, John Hoeven, Jerry Moran, and John Thune all just won re-election as well.
It would be hard for me to have less respect for them. So I guess there is nowhere to go but up?
