If Trump does lose in November, what a shit-show it’ll be until January 20th, 2021! A few weeks will be spent in denial (rigged, phony, fake, etc), but hopefully it’d be too decisive to dispute it in any real way, like taking it to SCOTUS (high road), or by arresting the Electors of key states before they can formally vote on December 14th (low road to CWII).
Then it’ll get weird, and we’ll see actual answers to questions like, can a president blanket pardon himself?

This is due to politics and policy. Choices have consequences.

Not sure that the colouring on the “plumbing poverty map” is entirely clear.

In any case, a more statistically robust intersection of “plumbing poverty” and race and ethnicity can be found here:
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/24694452.2018.1530587
(Ironically, it’s possible that the original “plumbing poverty” graphic came from this source)
Or for a less paywalled audience, here.
Their findings reveal a few things. For one, plumbing poverty is clearly linked to race and ethnicity:
- American Indian and Alaskan Native households are 3.7 times more likely to lack complete plumbing than others.
- Black Americans make up 16.6 percent of plumbing-incomplete households, compared to 12.8 percent of all U.S. households.
- Hispanics comprise 16.7 percent of plumbing-incomplete households, but just 12.5 percent of all households.
Plumbing poverty also tracks income: Households with incomes twice the PUMA median are 1.5 times more likely to have complete plumbing. Housing tenure and type are factors, too. Renters are about 1.5 times more likely to be plumbing poor than homeowners, and those who live in mobile homes are 2.5 times more likely to be plumbing poor.

But, but, “Blue Lives Over Black” Bel Edwards* is a “Democrat”. I guess he’s just trying to protect us from all the “Superpredators”.
* Thanks @DukeTrout…I knew it alliterated.
