Here is where I'd get into a longer rant about the perverse nature of our winner-take-all Congressional elections, and how this system reinforced a divided political geography where one party represents rural and exurban America and its value, and another party represents urban and professional suburban America and its very different values, and the two compete over a tiny battleground in between, with no incentives for compromise.
I think an important reason why Hillary Clinton did not win the Electoral College — I'm reluctant to say did not win the election — but an important reason why she lost the Electoral College and narrowly lost the vote in many of these heartland states of Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and so on, is that there's a large segment of rural and suburban and exurban voters in traditional occupations, in farming, in manufacturing, and so on.
The explanation for this, Wilkinson hypothesizes, is that the small aggregate movement is hiding an extreme divergence underneath: [T]he United States may be dividing into two increasingly polarized cultures: an increasingly secular-rational and self-expression oriented "post-materialist" culture concentrated in big cities and the academic archipelago, and a largely rural and exurban culture that has been tilting in the opposite direction, toward zero-sum survival values, while trying to hold the line on traditional values.
He has lampooned those universal welfare programs as unrealistic and more beneficial to the rich than the poor—"I'm skeptical of spending [tax revenue] on millionaires and billionaires"—and defended his work for the corporate-downsizing artists at McKinsey, hoping his steady gradualism on health care, taxes, and education will win over party elites, wealthy donors, and the well-to-do suburban and exurban base voters who fear that the stable status quo of the Clinton and Obama years is being disrupted by a surging left.
As Brian Master, founder of the Working Families Party's New York state chapter, noted at The Nation, New York isn't as blue as it sometimes seems from Manhattan: While convention proponents cite an upsurge in progressive social and political movements like Occupy Wall Street, Black Lives Matter, immigrant-rights mobilizations, and the Bernie Sanders campaign as evidence of a leftward surge that could carry a reform agenda in a constitutional convention, it's essential to remember the flipside: Donald Trump won 45 of the state's 62 counties in 2016, and a late, post-Comey Trump surge in suburban and exurban New York Senate districts sent several Democratic State Senate candidates to defeat.
