The only dems who have a shot in rural America are the homegrown dems.  This is why you see states like Montana always vote GOP for president, but split tickets in races for the house and senate.

MSW leaves out white Evangelical and Catholic voters who went Trump bigly.  There has been a lot of ink spilled on that fact as well.  They weren't voting for 'jobs' and they voted for a man who hardly demonstrated their repeatedly professed all important 'family values'.  So what were those votes all about?  I doubt it was all about abortion.
