NYC looks redder than either Chicago or LA.
That map shows 2016 Presidential results, not whether a geography is Dem or Rep. And maps don't show anything about relative support, obviously, because they don't reflect population.

As I'm sure you're well aware, Dotard's base isn't traditional Republicans, and NYC is the only one of the three with sizable non-Republican ethnic areas aligned to Dotard (Ultraorthodox, Russian and Italian). There are huge swaths of Brooklyn that went Dotard, doesn't mean these are traditional Republican-friendly areas, just like there are huge swaths of suburbia that went Clinton, doesn't mean these are traditional Dem-friendly areas.
