I wouldn’t say so. The Indianapolis area (Hamilton and Marion County in particular) is the only part of the state trending Democratic. I’d say it’s fairly elastic overall.

And it still voted overwhelmingly for Trump.

So...? These statements aren’t mutually exclusive. The area swung and trended fairly strongly Democratic in the gubernatorial and Senate race as well, and this trend will almost certainly continue this year when Donnelly is on the ballot.

Yes, yes, I know you are QUITE in favor of this projection, haha.  Anyway, to answer your "so...?" comment, I was saying that Indiana is not likely to trend Democratic at all, as even the most "Democratic trending areas of the state" are never going to have trends anywhere close to those of NOVA or somewhere like that and they are still reliably Republican.  There aren't enough Democratic votes in Indiana, period.
