A sentence needs to be added which reflects what happened:

Hate for Hillary Clinton lead to supporting Donald Trump.

Too simplistic. There was hatred of Clinton that worked in Trump's favor, but there was a lot of other hatred, directed at various other targets, that he was able to utilise.
"Religion is fundamentally opposed to everything I hold in veneration — courage, clear thinking, honesty, fairness, and above all, love of the truth."
— H. L. Mencken

Yeah. And if they still watching, they will find that instead of giving the establishment the middle finger, they actually gave the establishment a hand job.
