People who live in Trump's most supportive communities feel they are not as healthy as the nation as a whole and people in their communities are more likely to die from a drug or alcohol overdose, according to data from the Gallup and the Centers for Disease Control analyzed by the American Communities Project. Meet The Press merged data from three groups of counties that Trump won by more than 20 points - Graying America, Evangelical Hubs and Working Class Country. Those counties carry some common traits. They are more rural than the other places and tend to have lower incomes and lower college education rates. There are 1024 counties in that merged group. Trump won 986 of them. And they look very different from the country on some key health measures.
More than 28% of the people in those counties said they have health problems that prevent them from doing things people their age normally can do. In some of those places that was much higher, well over 30%. That's compared to a national average figure of roughly 22%, according to Gallup surveys conducted in the 3rd quarter of 2016.

This is one of the funniest things I have read in a long time. I think it was written by people who eat Avacados and watch Dr. Oz on TV.
Evidence shows if you drink a beer or two a day you live longer too.
Remember, this is the CDC, they are trying to give us BS all the time and make us fear dying from all sorts of diseases. Mind control is their specialty. I suppose they will now say most Trump supporters don't get the flu vaccine and they are evil.

If you're a Trump supporter you have a lower life span. Seems like you're more likely a drug or alcohol user, have an unhealthy lifestyle or uneducated.

With all due respect people who eat avocados rarely watch Dr Oz that would be your two bear a day types.
