I figured lethargic black turnout was perhaps the biggest issue as to why Trump had the best showing in South Carolina since George W. Bush in 1988....with the same probably true in Mississippi as well. On the other hand, I seem to recall reading that South Carolina was the only state to get "more white" during the last census.

I think SC and FL are the two with a significant increase of non Hispanic White population. Given FL is much larger and diverse, not surprised SC is the only one getting Whiter.
