People voted Trump for different reasons. Not understanding their reasons does not make you smarter. They were not all low IQ. Ignoring a big chunk of the population because they are "racist", "bigots" and "single-digit IQ yokels" will make you loose the next election to whoever decides to listen to them instead to lecture them.
Do that multiple times and you may end-up with a dicator(or at least someone who can become a dictator) sooner or later.

One of the narratives I hear repeated a lot that is simply untrue is around white americans. Trump doubled his numbers for minority (male) voters vs. the last time he was elected.
But rather than coming up with a new, more nuanced view of what's happening people would rather trot out old tropes like *republicans are white and racist and bad*.
Even with all the anti-immigrant stuff Trump increased his share of non-native born american voters.
The refusal of people on the left to update their world view was one of the big reasons why they lost the election.
