if the majority swings one way, the next generation will swing the other way.

We have no example anything like what we're seeing now. Those turning 18 are 87% blue. Every day boomers die, kids turn 18, and 83,000 votes change to blue - every day. The demographics are staggering. Want to know why the "red wave" was a pink trickle? That's why. At no point in US history in the last 150 years have we seen anything like this. The GOP will lose the Presidency in 24 - there will be over 5 million new blue voters, and people aren't turning red as they age anymore. The GOP will lose the House and Senate too. Attrition via death - the red side doesn't have enough voters left.
