Whether they've been swing states in the past or not doesn't mean they aren't currently swing states. I wish I shared your optimism about them being "easy blue" this year...
That's what the term means, though: you have to have a voting history to determine if a state swings or not. NM and CO and OH are good examples of ones that were, but are no longer. It's pretty clear from past and current history that WI isn't a true swing state, and what happened in 2016 was an anomaly. That, and now that the gerrymandering has been broken in the state, it's about to experience a hard shift left internally that will affect it for years to come.

I wouldn't even call AZ and GA swing states this year..."battleground", maybe, since them going blue in 2020 was a surprise, and it's unclear if this is a culture shift, or just a reaction to Trump. With yesterday's awful abortion ruling, it feels safer Blue this year, at least.
