Some of us weren't alive or not old enough to vote for some of those elections
I couldn't vote for Kerry but Obama was my first vote for President and there are a lot of people like me. Even the young people and Latinos that voted for Trump in 2024 are the same ones turning against Trump the fastest.
The demographics are very different than it was in the 80s and if Democrats can hold on to young people they should win the midterms probably by a lot more if not for partisan gerrymandering.
