Fact: New York City swung towards Trump by 7.6 points between '16 and '20, far more than any state in the nation.

The rest of the state swung against Trump by 5.1 points.
The story is pretty clear in NYC: Biden gained ground among whites, Trump gained ground among minorities. Pro-Trump swing by borough, '16-'20:
1. Bronx +11.8
2. Queens +8.6
3. Brooklyn +7.6
4. Manhattan +3.0
5. Staten Island -0.2
I wonder how many Bronx and Queens residents voted for both Trump and AOC to make the statement: “I like my politicians LOUD!”
I’d presume these shifts in part were anti-De Blasio, who presided over / egged on a huge increase since Memorial Day in looting and shooting. On the other hand, so did Minnesota, but the dweebs of the Gopher State swung toward the Democrats.
