Political polarization is at its worst point in modern American history under the Presidency of Donald Trump.
Not only is the House of Representatives with its tightest balance in recent times, with only a few seats edge for Republicans, the precise reason for the Texas mid decade Gerrymandering promoted by Donald Trump.
It is also the reality that in the state governments across the nation, there are a total of 41 states with single party control, meaning the Governorship, and majorities in both houses of the state legislature.
26 states are under Republican control, and 15 states under Democratic control, what is termed as “trifectas”.
The only states that are not in one or the other trifecta are:
New Hampshire
Pennsylvania
Virginia
Michigan
Wisconsin
Minnesota
Arizona
Nevada
Alaska
