By reading multiple threads from start to bottom it's quite clear people don't 'get' why he won. And I don't blame them if they been only informed by MSM.

Wikileaks: Clinton campaign colluding with all major news orgs. Polls were a sham questions ranging from stuff like would you rather vote for ‘Trump or Obama’ to heavy weighting issues. Debate questions given beforehand to Clinton. GOP going against Trump, all nasty hoax stories ranging to raping 13 year girl. You can even find the exact ‘Trump is crazy racist playbook narrative’.
Look it doesn’t matter if people are against or support Trump, but it’s quite concerning to see people labeled as ‘racist, sexist etc’ without any merit just because supporting Trump. Or accusing Trump something like his hatred against gays in hn when the truth is exact opposite.
After Trump has been elected people have been reporting false sexual assault stories (http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2016/11/10/us/ap-us-student-assaulted-headscarf.html http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2016/11/10/us/ap-us-student-...). Influential people in social media with millions of followers saying that now gays are going to be killed because of Trump. Have a look at social media people against Trump are acting extremely vile. Hopefully that doesn't lead to violence.
Media and DNC has created this narrative and they should be the ones to undue it. Instead Trump supporters have to do their dirty work and silencing us is not going to make it better.
