regarding chesterfield, what was causing the GOP decline before trump? This wasn't an area that was seeing an influx of DC employees, so what was happening here?
Interestingly enough, pre-trump Maricopa was actually trending red and Johnson was barely trending blue.

Lorain voted Clinton by a few hundred votes. Its streak will undoubtedly end in 2020, but it shouldn't be on this list.
No it won't. The Democrats are favored to win there.

I don't know about that. This county divided between rural areas and Cleveland exurbs. Elyria and Lorain are cities full of the average Trump voter. Really, if anything, its amazing Clinton managed a win here.
If even Clinton carried a county like this, it's ridiculous to call it Safe R.
