Overall a mixed bag.
Surely some came out because of Trump's boorish pride in his bigoted appeals, but others, particularly in the rust belt, came out because Trump was the first major party nominee in a long time to challenge the broadly bipartisan consensus on free trade/globalization and to call the economy rigged from the top down. Of course, Trump ended up ingratiating himself to the swamp and perpetuating it, but doesn't discount the power of his rhetoric.
