Outside of a few states, the blue states weren't as Jerrymandered. There was simply more meat on the bone for Dems to bite at and Trump just didn't think the Dems would go nuclear like we have.

And more than that, when you look at a lot of these maps, even in Texas, it seems like the GOP has a lot more districts that are supposed to be barely red, those can be flipped in a wave election like is coming up.
