Americans have all sorts of different ideas. Trump won because he tapped into those American ideas which are supported by the most Americans. Hillary lost because she failed in that regard. That does not mean that those who voted for Trump agreed with everything Trump and does not mean that those who voted for Hillary agreed with everything Hillary.

Don't kid yourself. Trump won because he rode a wave of irrationality that eight years built, he appealed to the easily manipulated, and his opposition was Hillary Clinton. Any other Republican would have beaten Clinton and any other Democrat would have beaten Trump. Both were losers.

Why does one of those need to be worse than the other? Being the former, by my reckoning, damn near always requires one sooner or later do the latter. The question almost strikes me as one of "chickens and eggs."
