There may some people who support Trump as an F you to the liberal elite, but I haven't met any. However everyone I've heard from that voted Trump cared most about abortion, trade agreements and manufacturing jobs, or obamacare. I do agree that there is a huge disconnect between "Berkley types" and middle America, but I don't think most people are so burned by the current status quo that they want to the whole thing on fire.
