Was Clinton even serious about winning MI & WI? She visited MI like 3-4 days before the GE when polls showed she was in trouble & didn't even go to WI. This despite WI having a Senate race where she should have campaigned. She was there getting questions for the Flint Debate. That person (the mother who asked that lead contaminated water questions) was a lifelong Dem voter who got so annoyed at her that she went to Fox & said she just wouldn't vote for Clinton (or Trump). Flint & many areas in Michigan (including Detroit) were failed by the establishment - Poor Infra, Bad trade deals. People don't have jobs or clean water like they used to & are not enthused to turnout only because Trump is bad.
And she ran an uber negative campaign focusing on personal attacks which doesn't help these people in trouble. I don't see Kamala's rust belt appeal ( I think she will do poorly there as well) but she can run a better campaign for MI & WI voters than what Hillary did.
