Any administration that moves forward with steady resolve, eliminating the filibuster to pass bill after bill protecting the rights of the people and ensuring the well being of the people, will provide tangible benefits to the people, which will in turn guarantee Dem majorities for the next generation.
For a concrete example, see Gretchen Whitmers first year of her current term - with a one seat majority in the legislature, she rammed through abortion rights, voting rights, union rights, and numerous other progressive bills protecting the people of Michigan.
If Dems retain the senate, and Harris governs as fearlessly as Whitmer has, it will gradually bring the country together (there will always be irrational holdouts), and ensure her re-election in 2028.
