But is Free Republic really a representative sample of all Trump supporters?

Trump is polling well in different sections of the GOP and among independents and Democrats as well, and some of his supporters in those circles may have different views.

Possibly but I think his appeal has less to do with policies than persona. Either way, there's no way to know at this point barring some other type of polling data.

My response was based on my experience here only.

Trump isn’t conservative, nor is he liberal. He not much constrained by ideology or political philosophy. .I guess if he thought about he might just say he’s American.

That is probably a foreign concept to many young people. But those of us of a certain age know exactly what it means, or, I should say, what it meant...

And, in spite of this writer’s conclusion, people like this were both highly educated and lacking education past high school. All kinds of backgrounds.

This writer has his own world view and an investment in keeping it true, for him.
