Late to the party here but good gravy, it wasn’t ticket splitting. A sizable portion of the cult voted for Trump and then called it a day.

Slotkin, Rosen, Gallego, Baldwin won their senate races, plus Stein for governor in NC while they all went for Trump. (Casey may have lost but signs point to him taking this one for granted while the others worked fairly hard.)
There are a lot more votes for President in those states than for Senate, and enough to make a difference.
A lot of people didn’t bother voting downballot and the vast majority were Trump voters.
Here’s the bright side, as we learned in 2018 and 2022: when he’s not on the ballot, they stay home. (Hopefully we have elections in the future.)
