I don’t care about it if they did, I just don’t like to see myriad confused claims by people who do not understand statistics, and their shortcomings.

I didn't say the rich were the majority of his votes, or that richer white people got him his votes. Both would be stupid things to say, because the rich are a small proportion of the electorate.
What I did say, and what at least Sebby seems to agree with, is that Trump voters were more affluent than Biden voters, and that having more money makes you more likely to vote for Trump. In other words, as Adder said, Trump voters were not the economically downtrodden.
