  • Good morning.

  • It's Tuesday, December 3rd.

  • I'm Sumita Basu.

  • This is Apple News today.

  • On today's show, how a boy who brought a stuffed bunny to school ended up in handcuffs.

  • Major new developments in Syria's years long, somewhat dormant civil war.

  • And a few ideas on how to give back on this Giving Tuesday.

  • But first, a look at just how much this country has shifted to the right since Trump's first term in office.

  • According to a recent New York times analysis, nearly 90% of counties in America moved to the right in this last election.

  • It's a remarkable shift with all 50 states moving some degree to the right.

  • And one place where Trump made significant gains was deep blue New York City.

  • Now, to be clear, Kamala Harris handily won both the city and the state overall,

  • But Trump won 30% of votes cast in the city.

  • That's 7 points higher than in 2020 and the biggest share of votes won by a Republican in New York since 1988.

  • And it's worth zooming in more to understand where those gains were coming from.

  • As you look closer, it wasn't really where the media class or the elite wing of the Democratic Party resides.

  • It was actually in the most multiethnic, working class neighborhoods in New York.

  • Simon Van Zylen Wood is a features writer for New York Magazine,

  • and he tracked Donald Trump's rising popularity in New York City after the election.

  • Nationally, blue collar voters of every ethnicity drifted right.
