        Baloney. Check every urban/suburban area vs. rural. Almost every place with moderate to large population votes one way vs sparsely populated areas. Look at the cities in all those pink/red areas and the rural areas of the blue. There's your divide, friends.

        Why do Michigan and Wisconsin appear in blue in the '2016 presidential vote by region' map, when Trump, as the text rightfully states "tipped [them] into his camp"? The same goes for Iowa, by the way.

        In the article, he explains. He's divided the country into regions based on shared culture and history. The upper midwest includes those states that went red last election, but also includes Chicago and New England which balance it out.

        Iowa is in a region that includes Phily, St. Louis, and some larger cities in Ohio, which again balances against red areas.

        So he won those individual states, but the regions are larger than just a few states, and spread across large swaths of the country. The quote you're referencing is saying that he won rural "Yankee" counties by large margins, not that he won the region of Yankedom".

        I'll make it easy for you...The divide is between those that embrace socialism, and want the government to have total control over their lives, and those who chose liberty and capitalism, where government stays out of the way and lets people decide for themselves.

        Except the map paints Republican states of Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania as blue, even darker blue. What a hilarious fabrication. The 2016 county by county map attached clearly shows not only a coastal divide, but a metropolitan vs. suburban+rural divide.pic.twitter.com/UGAD56BbeG

        The blue by the Gulf, as in the coast? Or the blue in the metro cities like El Paso? I mean, those two elements I stated covers well over 90% of blue counties.

        This article doesn’t address Tidewater at all, because it doesn’t jive with his argument. According to his characterization it’s conservative; but it includes liberal urban areas like DC, Fairfax Co., and Montgomery Co. This guy is just writing an article to sell his book.
