Yeah, that's a clanger -- my understanding is it's closer to $60k. Still, the point that most Trump voters aren't struggling in the traditional sense is sound. https://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/wkyeng.pdf.
As far as I can tell, according to the Census Bureau, the median - household -income is $80k. Using the same survey data, the BLS shows around $61k as the median for - individual - earnings.
