This is the " current" tactic? Was this idea just invented in the last few weeks?
There's not really any denying that the Alt-right movement has a huge racist following and appeals greatly to racists in a way that other political ideologies don't, but that wasn't the point of my question. I'm trying to understand the blind spot that made it so difficult to gauge Trump's support. And, no, it doesn't just come down to biased media because even republican leaning polls and polls that favored Trump didn't give him such a clear edge. Even most Trump supporters here didn't foresee a victory for Trump, at least not in the way that it happened. The OP's post is interesting in that it he didn't just say "I like Trump. He'll win" but predicted things that actually happened that weren't being addressed in mainstream media. But continue to be ... "annoyed". 
I think so much of what we know and expect will change drastically within the next year. 3 reasons I believe Trump has a massive edge.
1. The constant slandering and accusing people of being racists, sexists, bigots etc etc has just reached critical mass and undoubtedly that was one of the main reasons Hillary and the Dems lost the Rust Belt. The very same white working class that were the bread and butter of Bill Clinton have turned on the Democrat Party and come out for The Republicans or at the very least for Donald Trump.
2. The fact that the Republicans will be the one with the media edge from here on out because Alternative Media has ALREADY surpassed the mainstream media. What was the old saying? "The Democrats always had a 15 point advantage right of the bat because of media. Those days are gone forever.
So basically the 2 biggest factors being 1. Rejection of PC culture. 2. The loss of the massive media advantage.
Part 3
The hiring of Steve Bannon - This is a guy who basically just ran over the entire Conservative wing of the Republican Party with relative ease. His aim is to win 40% of the minority vote in 2020 and there is a good chance he'll achieve or approach it. So many of these Republicans in the recent past have gotten bogged down with the social issues such as gay marriage, abortion, having to fill out this "19 point conservative checklist" to keep the cuck Washington DC buddies happy. Trump avoids all of that.
Steve Bannon simply wants to WIN. Period. Fuck your Conservative values. Just get the W.
Populist agenda. He will get a trillion dollar infrastructure bill passed in Congress with bi-partisan support(Bernie Sanders and West Virginia Joe Manchin have already expressed interest in signing on) He can then stack that with the ULTIMATE salesperson in Donald Trump who will spend the next 2 years courting the minority community with good paying jobs and opportunities.
It is a completely different angle than we have ever seen. I believe it will pay off as well.
