I’m starting to think the Dems might increase their Senate majority this year, the GOPe seems to be trying to lose this election.

Or they are looking for a “measured” win, not a sweeping win.
A measured win(just barely taking the senate) will give them an excuse
not to do anything.

A sweeping win(which I believe will not happen) would actually force them
to do something. This is something the GOP does not want.

After all, they would be held accountable.

Yep. It will take *FAR* more effort to lose this time, than the effort it would take to win. It boggles my mind that the GOPe is trying to prep the political environment for a *loss*.

If the political right (GOPe, Conservative, what have you) can not regain a significant majority in both house of congress this election season, as ripe as the opportunity is, then they have no standing to blame the voters for their laughably piss-poor performance.
