You might be right in this, to the extent that there are people who believe essentially untrue things about "Trump". But it' not about "Trump", it's about a lot of people who have voted over the past eight years hoping to reverse what they don't like about what's happening with their country.
We are a deeply divided country. The division is artificially created by ideological extremists. If you can't see what those extremes are, realistically, and always believe the rhetoric of one side, you've lost the compassion that is the essential underlying virtue that qualifies our humanity as praiseworthy.
Trump, unlike Hillary, does have compassion for his opponents. A year ago, knowing he was good friends with Bill and Hillary Clinton, or assuming that their several visits and frequent phone calls, and Trumps donations in the past to the Clintons revealed some real human connection, I was saying that the Trump candidacy was a scheme to divide the Republicans like Ross Perot divided the Republicans in 1992. That Trump was Hillary's "Perot". But a few month later it was obvious Trump intended to actually win. That's what all his rhetoric was about, the "Crooked Ted" line (Ted Cruz if you don't follow the other side at all).
Whether he started out as a favor to the Clintons or not, expecting some favors in return, it seemed Trump really does play any game to "win".
I am not sure what Trumps "principles" are, if he has any, but I believe he has lots of human compassion and will treat people fairly, and respect their rights.
At any rate, I've given you enough static. People who believe in democracy will not join this crusade to demonize Trump.
