While I believe some voters (suburban woman dopes) abandoned Trump.

Still how did republican senate and House candidates get over 50% and the presidential candidate lost to a lackluster opponent?

Possible but unlikely with such a strong republican turnout.

It means there were more republican voters in these states and they elected Biden while electing Republicans all down the ticket?

Seems very unlikely.

Gop house did not get over 50%. Ran 3.1 % behind dems on total,
Or about 1.3% ahead of Trump (all
From official figures — take it as you will ). House GOP did a
Good bit better than 2018 but worse
Than 2016.

Trump is an a-hole, even to his friends. A lot of people just don't like him. Mrs. Tanker and her mother don't like Trump, but they voted for him.

I don’t believe he lost suburban women voters, just liberal spin to say he lost overall. No one in their right mind would vote for Bumbling Basement China Joe after four years of great achievements by Trump, especially those that voted for him the first time. He gained votes, didn’t lose votes.
