“Back in 2015, it was reasonable to believe that folks in the Midwestern United States wouldn’t be drawn to Donald Trump. Midwestern voters favor real punches over mindless talk, solidity over frivolity — and here comes a haughty rich guy from New York who literally started his campaign riding down a golden escalator. What could a suburban voter from the part of the country where folks make big metal things for businesses that make littler metal things see in a guy as pretentious as Donald Trump? But Trump knew his crowd. … If either Biden or Trump wins all three of those states — Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin — he will almost certainly win the White House. So how do things stand in those three Blue Wall states today?” (06/24/24)
