Yeah if the Dems want any shot at the House I think it will come down to much more the popular vote than the electoral college vote. Because CA/NY has many districts that the Dems won in 2020 and 2016 but have GOP in bents. The Dems will need to flip probably 75% of those seats combined to win the House, plus winning the two vulnerable open seats in MI and the vulnerable seats with mid in bents in PA, to win the House. I wouldn't favor the Dems to win the House. If Trump wins, I see the Dems flipping the House in 2026 largely by knocking off the Schweikert types off the board as well as a lot of those CA/NY seats.
There's infighting for sure. Cuomo might not have been perfect but he was relatively stable and universally approved of. Ever since he was coup'd in favor of Hochul, that was the starting point for the bleeding of the NY Dems statewide, which really reared its ugly head in the 2022 midterms, not just with redistricting.
