Who Elected Trump?

I did not vote for Trump, Uncle Ken did not vote for Trump, Old Dog did not vote for Trump, none of us voted for Trump. Therefore, they must have voted for Trump. Of course all of them didn't vote for Trump, some of them voted for Hillary, some of them voted for third party candidates, and some of them didn't vote for anybody. Speaking for myself, we voted for third party candidates. I wouldn't say that they voted for third party candidates because I am included in the group. When speaking to you guys, I wouldn't say that they voted for Hillary, I would say that you guys voted for Hillary.

I doubt that all of them voted for Trump for the same reason. Some of them might have actually liked him, as incomprehensible as that may seem to us. Some of them might have wanted to "stick it to the man", as Uncle Ken has suggested. As many contexts as there are for the word "man", I think it's reasonable to assume that the man they wanted to stick it to was the Republican man. Well, that was just in the primary. In the general election, some of them might have wanted to stick it to the Democrat man, and some of them might have wanted to stick it to all men regardless of race, color, or creed. With all the polls that were taken before the election, were there any polls taken after the election? I have read about how a certain percentage of Blacks, Whites, women, and other sub groups voted, but I don't recall anybody asking them why.
