If you go back and look at the voting maps long before the 2016 election you will see that there was a hell of a lot more blue even in rural areas prior to Republicans focusing heavily on taking control of states..
Granted Reagan did have a extremely strong turn out for his wins but before and even after the was a much more "purple mix across the entire country. The rural maps only changed so much once Republicans started gerrymandering illegally.
