It is a 'white-lash', essentially older white men who feel threatened by minorities, women and people who are moving in on their historical dominance of society. It's an intrinsically and subconsciously racist vote: support the man who looks and thinks most like them, because they aren't allowed to talk like him or simply that they get scared of groups of people who's skin is a different colour to their's. It's why more rich voters voted for him, because they have the most to lose in a multi-cultural society. Same as the f*cking Brexit crowd, essentially - we need to keep everyone else out so we can maintain our dominance.
After the recession they found that their dominance was already waning because everyone hated them for screwing up our economy, so this is their only way of fighting back - essentially voting in a modern day Hitler.
There isn't a single shred of evidence for anything you've just said here. Keep guessing.
There are 100's of reasons why people would or wouldn't vote for either candidate
They are both incredibly disliked and terrible candidates.

Numbers don't work to make this plausible. Even if 100% of "older white men" voted Trump this doesn't come close to make him POTUS. Factor in the voting system / electoral college and it dilutes it even further. There had to be a sizeable female and minority group support to give him the White House. Weird and confusing times but the reasons for the win are way more complex.
