Greetings from Trump's America: Mower County, Minnesota


Loyalty, unease in Trump's Midwest.  (Washington Post, 5/11/2018)
Schminke lives in a section of the Upper Midwest that responded enthusiastically to Trump, as a candidate and an incoming president. In this region, the Trump presidency is viewed as both reassuring and exhausting, a welcome poke in the eye at elites and the Washington power structure coupled with endless and often self-inflicted distractions. What is also apparent is that, 16 months into Trump’s presidency, many voters here have recalibrated their feelings and intensity of support for the man they backed in 2016.

Population peaked in 1960

(Third-party candidates received 8.2% of vote in 2016.)

The last time Mower County voted Republican in a presidential election was in 1960.
