(and this even happened in 2022 under Biden), the opposing party tends to pick up seats during those mid-term elections.

The degree of change does fluctuate.

The 2022 "*" election was the expectation of a tidal wave of red as a rout, but that didn't happen. However there were still GOP pickups from the "red trickle" that did happen (that was thankfully offset by (D) holds after the repeal of Roe).

As with any election, it's gonna come down to the "ground game".
