Also in my experience most Trump supporters aren't the comic characters they are portrayed as by the media. They are fed up with progressiveness and Trump seems like he's against that. Or he's an alternative voice. Or that he produced results where those that went before didn't.

I've found most have many things they dislike about him. They aren't stupid. Its also clear that Trump's enemies are being honest or fair in their criticism. This makes Trump a victim. Leads to sympathy in spite of his flaws. Because his opponents are exposed as frauds they lose all credibility.

I also have interacted with some Trump cult members. These people are unhinged and it has nothing to do with Trump. He's just appealing to them because he's unique in his opposition.

The bell curve meme is pretty accurate when it comes to Trump and people I know. The midwit republicans and independents tend to not support Trump.

The truth is, the corporate press and the establishment have no one to blame but themselves. When they were up against the internet full of people fact checking them and a political figure with no shame, they could not help themselves. They doubled down on lying and deceit. The system is full of leaches that will lie and cheat to keep their status. They do no realize that it is all being exposed. Those that have the most trust in the state will suffer the most going forward.

The danger of the veil of civility. For decades the smiling face on the TV has lied to us. But they were so nice and clean. Then this ape comes on the scene and ruins it all. This is why they hate him so much.
