Minnesota is one of the only states with large social protections, and is one of the most progressive States in terms of actual impactful policies. The MN Dem party also isn't the US Dems. They are a seperate Democratic-Farmer-Labor which is significantly farther left than the center-right-wing dems.
Walz even tried to ban corporations from owning single family homes outright a few years ago (republicans blocked it then wonder why home prices soar)
That is why trump hates MN, and the fact that Walz ran against him.
