Maybe RI but not NH? I’ll bet any amount of money that New Hampshire will vote to the right of Rhode Island in every single presidential election in the 2020’s. They’re both New England states but RI is more minority heavy, more working class, and not as likely to be supportive of Republican presidential candidates as NH.
Yeah, they shouldn’t contest RI unless it’s obvious they’re winning in a landslide (relatively speaking, at least).
ME (not ME-02) should lean D in a 50/50 election (at least in 2020), but is it really that outrageous to suggest that the state could be competitive (at least more so than VA or CO)? PA is the state that matters most, regardless of what “kind” of Republican they run (definitely not buying that Trump was the only Republican who could have won it, lol).
I’m not buying that NH is winnable for Republicans anymore or that it will become a lean R state, we’ll just have to agree to disagree here. Sununu is extremely liberal on social issues, and even he only won a gubernatorial race by 2 and with less than 50% against a very weak opponent. They voted against Trump in the presidential race despite the substantial amount of attention he devoted to the state and voted out an incumbent Republican Senator and a Republican representative in a GOP wave year even though everyone had told me that NH was THE bellwether state to watch (in both the presidential race and in terms of Senate control). As far as the much-vaunted Republican trifecta is concerned... trust me, it will no longer exist after 2018. 
Trump almost won NH. Less than a point.
