In the very type of elite NYC social class his base despises with all their hearts.

I’d bet his personal history is that of rejection by thr other elites he grew up around (Largely because he’s a boorish, dimwitted, misogynistic, racist cretin in his heart of hearts), leading him down a path of hating those people even more for rejecting him and pandering to the types of rednecks and losers he himself looks down upon with contempt and ridicule for approval.

He clearly despises the 55% of America that disapproves of him and considers us his enemy. He is far more a white nationalist warlord than the president of a diverse nation.
