I don't know. I'm a Rockefeller and I couldn't vote for him even in the primaries (then again I didn't vote since I am an independent and didn't want to deflect a side.)

Eventually, many books will be written on this subject from a sociology point of view. Personally, I think his ardent supporters want so badly to have things go their way, that they con themselves into believing what Trump says.
"It is to be considered that, without his consent having even been asked a man finds himself surrounded by a government that he cannot resist; a government that forces him to pay money, render service, and forego the exercise of many of his natural rights, under peril of weighty punishments. He sees too, that other men practice this tyranny over him by the use of the ballot. He sees further, that, if he will but use the ballot himself, he has some chance of relieving himself from this tyranny of others, by subjecting them to his own.
In short, he finds himself, without his consent, so situated that, if he use the ballot, he may become a master; if he does not use it, he must become a slave. And he has no other alternative than these two.
In self-defense, he attempts the former.
His case is analogous to that of a man who has been forced into battle, where he must either kill others, or be killed himself. If, to save his own life in battle, a man takes the lives of his opponents, is it to be inferred that the battle is one of his own choosing?
Neither in contests with the ballot, which is a mere substitute for a bullet. If, as his only chance of self-preservation, a man uses a ballot, is it to be inferred that the contest is one into which he voluntarily entered? That he voluntarily set up all his own natural rights, as a stake against those of others, to be lost or won by the mere power of numbers.
On the contrary, it is to be considered that, in an exigency into which he had been forced by others, and in which no other means of self-defense offered, he, as a matter of necessity, used the only one that was left to him." - Lysander Spooner, No Treason, 1867
Kind of proves they don't really care about the issues. They just want a Con in the white house.. no matter who it is. Sad.
That is how politics works. Most of the people in this country are literally terrified of the other party. And honestly, they are terrified of each other.
The system forces you to to pick a team, and defend your team. Because what other choice do you have?
If you want people to change teams, you have to give them a better team. I mean, from the perspective of some, the only choices are the literally the equivalent of choosing between Hitler and Stalin.

That's because it's a stupid question.
A better question would be, why do working-class whites like Trump?
Answer: he doesn't hate my ****ing guts and hope I die a slow, miserable death as seems to be the case with most leftists.
