Nice try, but I'm not buying.

...a rich but uncouth guy who accidentally comes to have power over the country club or college where he clearly does not belong.

That covers after he got elected. It doesn't explain the hate fest from the time he announced his candidacy.

I'm not even going to bother with your other comment as it also only comes into effect after he is elected.

There is a root issue here, I just can't grasp what it is.

No, I think Stirner is right. They see Trump as New Money, and the Left is the most class-conscious group of snobs in the world. Think of how they love celebrities and European royalty. This is a class issue, and even the poorest Leftwing journalist sees himself as the psychological heir of the Old Money gentility/American aristocracy of the entrenched political class.
