Like a block of cheddar molding in the back of the fridge, Donald Trump is orange, horrifying and unqualified to be president. However, despite his blatant racism, incredible lies, and total fear mongering he remains a candidate for that office, and he also remains a topic Americans frequently Google.
Estately was curious how Americans differ in how they Google Donald Trump and Donald Trump-related topics so we did some research. First, we carefully chose a variety of terms and topics representing Trump business ventures, his various supporters, his many false statements and invented nicknames, the Trump-related questions people frequently search, and many more. We then ran them through Google Trends to measure which states search for these terms, topics and questions more than any other state.
