16. I know a number of people who voted for Trump and still support him.

I saw the people wearing Farmers for Trump shirts. I saw people interviewed on TV who proudly proclaimed their votes for Trump.

It's possible that he didn't win, but there's no question that hundreds of millions of American voters chose Trump. That's the problem.
