That's the democrat/leftist playbook and has been for years. That's the "basket of deplorables" statement made by Hillary when she said Trump supporters are racist, sexist, xenophobic, homophobic. That's old news.
That's "SIXHIRB" which goes back as least as far as 2010. Sexist, Intolerant, Xenophobic, Homophobic, Islamophobic, Racist, Bigoted. Nevertheless, it's good that you're starting to think about it.
No need to "defend" the vote. There is not a politician alive, Hillary above all, who was going to be able to bridge the divide and get meaningful things done on behalf of the American people. Electing another politician would have been simply "rearranging the chairs."
Many reading this despise Trump. I get that. Understand, however, that he's a man of commerce, not a politician, who will be able to grab some from this side, others from that side and inspire them to get things done on behalf of the people. And that means all the people, including the utter fools currently breaking shit in Portland, Oakland, Chicago and elsewhere around the country.
Trump haters will be amazed four years from now after he has turned Washington upside down and around and it begins to work again, for the people. He's a deal maker, not a party zealot. That's what the country needs at this point in its history. That's why he was elected.
