Trump listened to the Tea Party when they said that they were not affiliated with any party, they simply tended to support the GOP because it contained some candidates who promoted their agenda.

DT realized that the TP was ready to turn on anyone it did not approve of, and stepped up to become their champion and spokesperson.

What he realized was that the Tea Party was deep down was a culturally revanchist and white nationalist reaction to the election of a black President with a foreign sounding name. Everything he’s done has been to exploit disaffected white, mostly male angst over not being able to put black people, brown people, women and gays in their place anymore. It’s entirely about a people who were raised to believe they were the Übermensch raging over their perceived loss of a rightful inheritance.
