There are 16,000 Americans who earn over 10 million per year. This amounts to 0.005% of the population. And keep in mind:

1) Most of those people probably make in the 10-15 million range, and thus most of their income wouldn't be affected
2)This is an extremely tiny number of people, and I would bet they tend to be very insular and not connected to the general population. Your archetypical rust belt Trump voter certainly doesn't know anyone at this income level.
