Here is an interesting look at the exit polling reasons Trump supporters gave:
http://electionado.com/canvas/1479173071893
There is a lot of weirdness there.
Most Trump supporters liked Obama.
But most also wanted change.
A majority of them thought the rich should pay their fair share in taxes, yet the *only* coherent economic policy by trump was the exact opposite?
And for "change" they voted straight party ticket more than ever before to *keep* the GOP in power in Congress, despite 6 years of them being in power.
Considering one of the deciding factors in whether you supported trump was education, I kind of think I agree wholeheartedly with them not making a rational decision here.
"Common sense," the former Trump adviser said. "The Republican primary voter will want it. And Washington will immediately tell you, 'You can't do that.' That's the elite class telling you, 'We're smarter than you and you don't know what's good for you.'... Further infuriating the voter, and making the voter more dedicated to Trump."

The media and a huge number of liberal advocates played directly into their hands. I think the theory is, that if you can stereotype the trump supporters as stupid, people won't want to be trump supporters, because no one wants to appear stupid. But it just totally backfires. Even if it's not explicitly the desire to humiliate Trump supporters, it is a really huge part of the media / entertainment narrative.

I don't think I have ever spoken with a Trump supporter who doesn't bring this up.
When a Trump or a Scott Walker says, "The media think you are stupid! The academics say you don't know anything! The elites look down on you!" it totally resonates with them.
In a twisted way, the more people attacked Trump and his supporters, the more ammunition and power it gave him. "See, look at that...its just what we were talking about."
I saw a video where Obama stood up for a Trump protester at one of his speaking engagements. He did it with such profound respect, and I thought, if this could be how we all treated each-other, it could really cut the legs out from under the demagogues.
Making people look stupid is great for laughs, but would there have been more to gain from presenting those people with a genuine chance to be smart and be sympathetic. Some of the best episodes of "This American Life" do a great job showing the human side of every situation.
