This isn't about Trump magically finding more supporters, it's about people turning against the extremism of the Left. Specifically, the working class has very little confidence that Democrats care about them at all. The Left essentially ignores people who didn't go to college but aren't unemployed and don't center their identity around some type of minority status. If you're in the lower middle then you don't really exist UNTIL election time, then the liberal media starts obsessing over "non-college voters" like some breed of vermin. Studies have shown that Democratic candidates for Congress aren't from the working class (2% to 6%) and most do not focus on the issues that are important to the working class as a group or include key words the working class is looking for in their political messaging. Does Trump care about the working class? No, of course not, but he is clever enough to talk to and acknowledge them. He's grabbed an opening left by the Democrats. It's their own fault. |
Most of what you've said is also true in some capacity of Republicans.
Congress is not made up of the working class for either party. It's not an issue exclusive to Democrats.

And what about the extremism of the right?
I'm still waiting for any actual left wing policies to be implemented. Waiting for actual universal healthcare.
Meanwhile, the right has successfully banned abortion in many states. Forcing 10 year olds to give birth to their rapist's babies. Forcing people to die for a pregnancy that wasn't even viable anyways.
Banning topics in school to placate straight white culture.
