There are two types, the Rich ones and all the others.
The Rich ones want sociopaths and psychopaths who want to be free of regulations, taxes, and above all, responsibility, so they can live without any check on doing whatever they want. They want their little kingdoms on earth where they can own people to do their bidding and dispose of anyone else as they see fit.
They see Drumpf as a fellow traveler - as emotionally and morally removed from Society in general as they are, and know he would "have their backs" as long as he gets a cut.
As for the others - They're either angry or afraid. They believe that a social hierarchy is best for them, rather than the risk involved with taking responsibility for actual freedom of action and opportunity to live one's own life on an equal status with everyone else in a wider, interconnected world.
Like children, they crave certainty. They would actively avoid participating in society if there's no promise of reward at the end of that participation.
They want a small, comfortable world to live in where they're in the "respected" class - where they have privilege over those who are lesser, where there's no surprises, where they have access to whatever they want with maybe just a little bit of effort - and they get to see Jesus or Allah or whatever they believe in as promised to them by their betters when they die.
So, while I may understand them and have some pity on their fears, it is the same pity I would have for a small child's fears. Which means they've got to grow the f*** up and take responsibility for their actions or lack of actions if they want any respect. I don't appreciate the massive amount of "cleaning up" that needs to be done after supposedly grown people let their petty emotions lead run their "thinking".
