I don't think there's a singular reason for this, stupidity, misinformation, us-vs-them mentality, attempt to be on the "winning" side..., but I think the most important contributing factor here is that, people who are oppressed will often seek a power figure who can enable them to become the oppressor for a change, and Trump is a great enabler in this case, he projects power and says the things people want to hear!
