2017 Alabama, I feel is the most obvious case of a fluke.

2016, 2017, and maybe 2021 (too early to tell).

2016: Uniquely bad candidates plus political malaise toward establishment leaders
2017: Roy Moore was a pedophile, typically safe Republican state
2021: Unusual political conditions with "war on woke", bad establishment D vs moderate R

2018 and 2019 were not that unique, as Kelly won re-election and Beshear is competitive this year.  2020 was the return to establishment dominance, and 2022 was remarkably similar to the last several cycles under Trumpism - close but with Democrats edging their dominance.

2016. Trump only won with narrow margins in purple states while losing the popular vote worse than W. in 2000 did.
