Good luck picking off Derek Kilmer and Denny Heck in a Trump midterm, lol.

Yeah I laughed at that too.

Notable seats the NRCC isn't interested in:

-IL-10
-NY-25
-CA-16
-CA-26
-RI-02

Don't know much about the other states but the issue with RI-02 is that half of providence was drawn into it so it's not likely to go barring massive dropping in turn out in the city. If the Republicans win the governorship, a map that trades the rest of providence for Woonsocket and Cumberland would maybe be a toss up. Although RI will probably lose a seat in 2020

RI is pretty much guaranteed to lose a seat in 2020, which is probably why Republicans aren't targeting RI-02. It's a bad investment unless RI as a whole trends massively to the right which I doubt it will.

Anyway, they seem to be using roughly the same algorithm as the Democrats to decide what seats to contest.

CT-2?! CT-5 is one thing, but they have no idea what they're doing if they're actually going to try for the 2nd district.

It was pretty close at the presidential level, but Courtney seems like a strong incumbent.
