And who wants to bet that most of those rundown areas acrually did vote for Trump? And that things didn't change after Trump got elected?
Not sure exactly how this relates, but the most Republican districts in the coming midterms are also the most well off, but they were well off before Trump. I read a recent report of a study that supposedly showed a link between racism and sexism and Obama voters going Trump, but not between economic malaise and those same voters, so it's not clear what the relationship between economic conditions and voting Trump was. Given that he won primarily by appealing to rural voters, I doubt it's as clear cut as you suggest.
