Trump has a horrible personality and has no morals, decency or honor. He insulted POW's, a Gold Star family, and about a thousand other groups. He was and is massively unpopular.

He won those 3 states because Democrats hated Hillary so much many of them stayed home i/o voting for her.

H is combined victory margin in those states was just about 77K votes (PA 44K, WI 22K, MI 11K). And that margin wasn't the result of a massive outpouring for Trump in those states.

He won because compared to the 2012 Obama-Romney race, Hillary LOST more votes in those states vs Obama than Trump gained over Romney.

See uselectionatlas.org.

Trump got 459K more votes than Romney did in those three key states, but Hillary got 597K fewer votes in those states than Obama did four years before. Hillary LOST those states.
