It doesn't seem to be calling the majority an outlier or bizarre. You don't even need to apply this label to the majority - they needn't all have this mental state. Further, it's not an obscure concept - it's a pretty straightforward concept.
Yes, the people aren't listened to. But a big, chunky part of what they are saying is being heard, and is just not solvable because it's based on simple hatred of other people (not an insignificant part of every election - but the core of this one). That grievance doesn't somehow legitimize the vote for him. It only explains it.
