some voted for him because they're trolls and just think it's funny to own the libs
some voted for him because they're any one OR more of the following: homophobic, xenophobic, misogynistic, racist
many people voted for him because elon musk spent 45 billion to turn twitter into a propaganda machine to take advantage of the 4 above traits and people got duped by it
some people voted for him because they're men, and the invention of the internet led to millions of incels who have zero idea how to navigate life or relationships outside of their phone. So they went onto youtube and found people like rogan, andrew tate, jordan peterson, etc. who have a monopoly on masculinity because the liberals have never made any attempt to cater to or care about that demographic. So those men are pushing a narrative of anti-immigration, transphobia, homophobia, tradwives, and completely outrageous conspiracy theories. All those young men were shunned by the lgtbqia+ and liberal women communities, which leads to them adopting those values
a LOT of people voted for him because they're just dumb and don't understand politics or economics at all, and frankly don't care to. They don't want to learn what the electoral college is, what the difference between the house and senate are, who appointed which supreme court justices, they don't know anything about federal reserve interest rate cuts, they know nothing about american history. All they know is eggs cost a lot of money and that must be because the current president is refusing to press the magic "lower the price of eggs" button. Right now the current president is a democrat, so they're gonna swing to the right. If the sitting president was republican, those voters would've voted for the democrat.
I'm guessing I'm missing at least one other demographic, and some people could be a combination of the reasons above. I don't know the motivation for latinos voting for trump, but I'm guessing it's mostly due to religious reasons. feel free to add on
