Maybe it was all those illegal votes Trump tweeted about kept NJ from swinging more towards the GOP....
However, according to the 2016 National Popular Vote Tracker, NJ was actually the 10th most democratic state (11th if you count DC). The US had a 2.2% swing from Democratic in 2012 to Republican in 2016, but NJ actually swung further with a 3.7% shift.
Neighboring CT also shifted 3.7%, while NY and DE shifted about 7.0%, while PA swung a bit less than NY or DE, 6.5%.
