I know some analysis wants to say that dissafected working class people in the Great Lakes were moving toward trump and that's just wrong.

As your correspondent on the ground here living in a post industrial wasteland as a working class manufacturer I can tell you that white suburban men were his biggest supporters as they always have been for any republican.

It's the very low turnout that lost this for Clinton and my only real comfort right now is that this election thoroughly repudiates the idea of defensive voting. People, it seems want someone to vote for and can't be seriously motivated just to vote against someone.
