I voted for Clinton back then. Isn't that cute?
Remember when people thought Obama hit rock bottom with rural whites...
Oh yeah, which is why I'm super skeptical when I read takes that say Trump has hit his ceiling with rural voters. No my friend, those rural Trump >60% counties could very well become Trump >70-80% counties.
They obviously could, but there is no guarantee they will. EVERYWHERE has a ceiling. We thought Republicans reached it before Trump with rural Whites, and we were wrong. That doesn't automatically mean that predictions of >60% Trump counties becoming 80% Trump counties are going to turn out to be true, either.
At some point we're talking about high school drama teachers flipping. There are liberals everywhere. No place is a political monoculture.
