Red states are leading economic growth in the U.S., a new report by the U. S. Commerce Department shows, with South Dakota, Texas, and Utah reporting the highest growth.

The report is based on 2020 fourth-quarter gross domestic product (GDP) data and February 2021 unemployment rates.

Real GDP increased in all 50 states and the District of Columbia in the fourth quarter of 2020. Real GDP for the U.S. as a whole increased at an annual rate of 4.3%.

The percent change in real GDP in the fourth quarter ranged from 9.9% in South Dakota to 1.2% in the District of Columbia.

The top three states in quarter-over-quarter growth were South Dakota (9.9%), Texas (7.5%), and Utah (7.1%). All three have Republican trifecta governments, with Republicans controlling the governor’s offices and both chambers of state legislatures.

this will cause even more federal money to be poured into blue states.

Of course the non-commie states (can't call them "red" for obvious reasons) are showing signs of growth.

They don't have Rodents ruining them with fascistic bogus China Flu closure policies.
The GOP is not the party leadership.  The GOP is the party MEMBERSHIP.   The members need to kick the leaders out if they leaders are going the wrong way.  No coddling allowed.
