Minnesota Seemed Ripe for a Trump Breakout. It Has Not Arrived. NYTDULUTH, Minn. — For a campaign event featuring Donald Trump Jr., the brash-talking, liberal-dunking namesake of the president, it was all rather mundane.
There was no large rally with thronging crowds, but a few hundred seats at a community center, each socially distanced. The signature Trump campaign playlist, usually blared at a volume that makes conversation impossible, was replaced by a selection of library-level soft rock. “I like the crowds a little bit more packed and a little tighter, but we have to play by different rules, and that’s OK,” he told supporters. It was not supposed to be this way. If any state is positioned to go from blue to red in 2020, to embrace the fullness of Trumpology and provide the president some much-needed Electoral College insurance, it is Minnesota. 
Donald Trump Jr. drew a relatively sedate crowd to a recent campaign event in Duluth, Minn. More at: NY TIMES

My burb has been blue since I've lived here. We recently saw a big Biden sign in a yard that was obnoxiously Trump, last go around.
