What this ultimately means is that while the House becomes more Republican, the Senate becomes more entrenched Democrat because only the House changes with the shifting populace. The shrinking blue states just become a deeper blue.

Not really. Adding more seats in “Red” states usually means that it’s harder to carve out as many safe Republican seats as you can with fewer House seats. Reapportionment will mostly move Democrat seats from North to South.
