    I think Trump knows that he’ll almost always score points with voters by offending and upsetting those opposed to him, regardless of their party. So many of those who voted for him cited his unwillingness to conform as a major draw.

    Most of them are just angry with the status quo and by upsetting establishment people Trump misleads the electorate into thinking he’s not of and from the establishment. He’s convinced so many that he’s a force for change when in reality he’s a force for entrenching and empowering the worst aspects of the system.
