The election of 2020 as explained by a set of maps.

Map 1: Where Trump lost in 2020 after having won in 2016 (whole states only, not including Nebraska's Second Congressional District).
Map 2: Where Trump won in 2016 by a narrow margin (less than five points).
Map 3: Where Trump won in 2016 by the skin of his teeth (less than one point).
Map 4: Where Trump won Independent voters in 2016 but lost them after in 2020 (after focusing largely on "the base" for four years but turning off many Independents).
Map 5: Where Trump's party lost GOP-held Governorships since Trump took office.
Map 6: Where Trump's party lost House Seats since Trump took office.
Map 7: Where Trump's party lost US Senate Seats since Trump took office.
Map 8: Where Trump's party lost State House seats since Trump took office.
Map 9: Where Trump's party lost State Senate seats since Trump took office.
The maps tell a simple story:

1) Trump barely won in 2016.
2) He lost critical support from Independents.
3) His party suffered in the states he eventually would eventually in 2020.
4) And then he lost those states himself and thus the election.
5) The end.
(Pardon the grammatical mishaps. I edit and re-edit tweets, all without the benefit of an actual edit button. I inevitably leave an extra word in there accidentally. But you get the point. Good night!)
