Trump supports free speech? He promised to strengthen libel laws (pretty sure there aren't any such thing at the federal level now ...)

He said a lot of things freely, and a lot of them are interpreted by many as racist or otherwise categorized as bigotry.

I can see the viewpoint that supporting Trump is much more about supporting bigotry than it is about supporting free speech, based on his words and his promises. I have more trouble seeing the viewpoint of the inverse, at this point still.
