You're giving them way too much credit. They like Trump because his vocabulary consists of words a fifth grader would use, so they can actually listen to him without feeling completely lost and out of their depth (note: they're still completely lost and out of their depth). There's also a large subset of voters who treat politics like football and wouldn't ever vote against their team.
