It wasn’t very politically savvy of Clinton to call trump supporters a basket of deplorables but it was 100% right.
It's always been true. The right in the US might be the most selfish group of people in the entire world. The amazing thing being that the middle class in their selfishness don't realize that the elite running the party are screwing them over because they're acting selfishly as well but simply telling them that it is only harming the poor/immigrants/minorities.

The "right" is a very broad term, but I think the sort of lads and lasses who are taking to the streets in the US are just mostly quite dim and conditioned to the point of almost complete malleability after a lifetime of media indoctrination. In a way, I feel quite sorry for them. The US is an unforgiving place to live economically speaking, and its easy to get left behind. Many of them probably work low-paid jobs and will never be able to improve their own lot.

There are probably loads of them who are genuinely desperate, frightened and eager to hear any message that validates a return to their week-to-week existence. And it's even better if that message pins the blame on someone or something else than the rather more complicated truth; that any possible access they might have had to a nice life has been systematically crushed for decades, often by the same politicians and personalities who claim to be the only ones sticking up for them.

It really is bizarre that people are willing to break the law in defence of people who have systematically, and quite deliberately, destroyed any semblance of a safety net, killed the middle class, offshored skilled labour and stamped down on wages and workers rights for them.

They aren't smart. It's harsh to say but, in a lot of cases, it's true. And there are powerful groups who want to keep it that way

They’ve been sold the American dream. If you work hard and play the game you will make a tonne of cash, drive a pickup and live in a nice suburb, if you don’t have these things it’s down to your own failings. Then someone comes along saying ‘wait it’s not your fault, it’s foreigners or the deep state’ etc etc. Even though the person saying this inherited his wealth you want to believe the message so much it clouds everything else.
