    Though Trump campaigned as the pro-business candidate, Biden won 70-29 measured by the productivity of the counties that supported him.pic.twitter.com/KXaVCydk04

        the strongest argument against this point is the governance of NY and CA

        High productivity = high potential tax revenue = opportunity for enterprising bureaucrats to attract and cultivate low income low education constituents who can be manipulated into a reliable power base = perma blue county

        This is a misleading tweet. Cook County (Chicago) for example is highly productive and votes heavily blue, but it is important to note that many of the most productive individual voters, like financial professionals for example vote Republican.

        The most heavily democratic demographics in Chicago are the least productive, while the more republican ones are highly productive.

        Once again demonstrating that economic disenfranchisement is driving the radicalization of the United States.

        No, radicalization and smearing of competitors is driving careers.

        That would make sense. The zones that voted republican are those that want more jobs and better pay. The blue zones are doing just fine.
