Of that demographics issues to understand the reasoning. The White American middle and lower middle class supporting the Orange Goblin have the same issues as everyone else in America: They are overworked. Their paychecks are shrinking. Their jobs are leaving the country. They are losing what little they have.
In 2012 the GOP reached their peak of arrogance, running Mitt Romney who epitomizes the phrase "Fortunate Son." They ran one of the people responsible for Americas problems including lower and middle White Americas problems. It failed and they had to go back to the drawing board. They realized they needed a hook to get people back on board. So, they hired Drumpf.
These people support him out of desperation. They wanted answers for why America is how it is outside of "muh taxes need cut." Drumpf arrived and promised he would bring their jobs back, better than before. Would bring back high wages, and introduce low cost healthcare. Would bring back warehousing, coal and construction. You know, the type of jobs White Americans without College Education go into. He put a face on the reason why and deflected the anger from Wal Street to the Latino landscapers and janitors making $5 an hour with zero power for anything in America.
Like I said, it worked and they are desperately clinging to their hope that Drumpf will take on Wall St, bring back medium wage labor jobs and kick out the foreigners with funny last names. Most I have spoken with KNOW he is a liar and piece of shit, they just refuse to admit he deceived them and the jobs and money aren't coming back.
