We saw multiple MAGA Republicans get their ass kicked in NH this year following 2020 when Biden beat Trump badly there. Republicans can very much win NH, but not a Republican like or associated with Trump. Having said all of that, how the hell did Trump do so well there in 2016 and nearly won the state?

The same reason he won Michigan and Pennsylvania despite those two states rejecting MAGA candidates in 2020 and 2022 - Hillary Clinton was a very weak candidate.

I don't think its the same. Trump had a special appeal to the rust belt region of the country and actually  did well on those 2 states even though he lost in 2020.

Everyone's saying Hillary so I'll say something different: Trump had an appeal in the state (and in other New England states) in 2016 that he just wouldn't have afterwards.

What appeal did he have in New England in 2016 that would quickly fade?
