Considering America's centre-point seems more right-wing (until Bernie started to make strides) than the UK, Trump has been at times far more BNP than UKIP or May style Tory. That he's been welcomed by Farage and May shows just how desperate we are to maintain out relationship with America (in the long run is supporting Trump the best thing for that?) and what they individually see as acceptable behaviour.

Even if Trump speaks your political mindset 80% of the time, with his isolationism and anti-climate tendencies etc, then the answer is to find and back someone doing this 100% of the time rather than spending 20% speaking and acting in a discriminatory way.
For some it was a case of voting for who they hated the least, you don't have to love Trump to hate Hilary more, they are still supporters of him if they voted for him, I can't see them marching though.
