So , trump saying bigoted things got him free media attention by the truckload . Most if not all of the trump voters I have personally met or encountered in a rural area , of all colors and kinds are not bigots , and did not suppourt him for that . There are most certainly racists and bigots that voted for trump just like there are racists and bigots that voted for hillary . The trump voters I know voted for him because A his proposals arent terrible , and stand to benefit the people who have been ignored for the last 8 years plus some others , instead of just city dwellers , and B he isnt hillary . Hillary is the embodyment of all that people see as wrong with the government . She was in bed with the large corporations that cause so many issues , she is constantly under investigation for wrongdoing , and people who are willing to testify against her tend to commmit suicide in very unusual ways , such as with multiple gunshot wounds to the back of the head . A large amount of the country even among her voters consider electing her similar to hiring casey anthony to watch your kids , or a hungry wolf to watch your sheep . If the DNC hadnt rigged their own party to favor hillary and gone with bernie , it most likely would ' ve been a landslide for the bern . Plus we might not have had trump because the DNC tried hard to make him a candidate too . Basically the DNC is responsible for how crap this election is , and lots of democrats are making excuse after excuse for them , andor ignoring the proof wikileaks provided .
