The reality is that Democrats fought a successful holding action. While Republicans made gains they did not win full control nor develop a working margin in the House.

Sometimes stalling successfully is a win.

In some ways it was similar to 2010. All that is missing is the big red wave. However the GOP did take the House and did well in the state by state races, much like 2010.
 
Sounds like an acute case of sour grapes on your part. And if I were a betting man, I'd say the GOP will likely pick up more seats and take the Senate in 2024, just based on the fact that the democrats will have many more vulnerable seats up for grabs.
