I think you are hoping for a wave election.

But Putin hasn't made his moves yet. Americans have shown themselves receptive to his message.

If the wave is large enough, maybe America can regain control of its own congress. For the moment, it is in Russian/Republican hands.

Dem wins Kentucky state House seat in district Trump won by 49 points

Kentucky Democrats on Tuesday reclaimed a rural district in the state House of Representatives that went heavily for President Trump in 2016.

Linda Belcher (D), a former state legislator who lost her seat in the Trump landslide in Kentucky, reclaimed the Bullitt County district by a more than two-to-one margin, defeating her GOP opponent Rebecca Johnson 68 percent to 32 percent.

The Democrat had lost her seat in 2016 by just 150 votes, or less than 1 percentage point, even as Trump carried the district with 72 percent of the vote there compared to Hillary Clinton's 23 percent. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) also won the district in 2016 with 64 percent of the vote.
