crab mentality is strong in the United States here of late with voters blaming each other for the destruction of the country when the ones that truly fund and run the country are the perpetrators that have Trump on a leash doing their bidding

That matches the hue, but the added dimension is the saturation. Counties in brighter colors are more impacted by retaliatory tariffs, while duller colors are less impacted. The point is to illustrate that a higher proportion of impacted counties voted for Trump than if the impact were spread evenly, though the effect is not that pronounced. Statistically, people working in different industries tend to vote one direction or the other compared to average, but there are still both Harris and Trump voters in every industry.
