Somewhere I've seen a posting showing Trump support in income groups, and the lowest income group - probably brown and or female supported Clinton.

The story is in fact told better than I ever could by Bruce Bartlett, who worked in the Reagan White House and for George HW Bush, so I’ll just summarise it here. The story starts under Reagan, who provided pressure to withdraw the Fairness Doctrine, which was similar to what keeps UK broadcasters from being partisan. Initially that allowed the rise of talk radio, and then Fox News. Gradually being partisan at Fox meant misinforming its viewers, such that Fox viewers are clearly less well informed than viewers of other news providers. One analysis suggested over half of the facts stated on Fox are untrue: UK readers may well remember them reporting that Birmingham was a no-go area for non-Muslims.
Which politicians have ever proposed a feasible plan for finding meaningful work for the working class in Rust belt areas? Education in the US has fairly punitive costs and the Great Recession has decreased it's worth. Especially with rising fears of automation or foreign outsourcing. IBM's ten years to master rule of thumb probably applies for tradesmen too.
