And do note that ALL of the oligarchs and plutocrats are frightened to death of Donald Trump because the billionaires and millionaires can’t buy him like all of the other politicians they routinely purchase, because Trump doesn’t need nor want their money

Why would they be scared of him? He's one of them. He'll do what they want because they share common interests. That's like Goldman Sachs being afraid of one of their alumni becoming president. This is why the fat cats and establishment pols are circling the wagons around Trump.

What Wall Street is truly afraid of is Ted Cruz who, despite his detractors claiming he got special loans from Goldman Sachs and Citibank in 2012, shut the government down in 2013 over Obamacare, against the wishes of the financial sector. On Wall Street, Cruz is so hated, he's a voodoo doll, a veritable pinata.

“Why would they be scared of him? He’s one of them. He’ll do what they want because they share common interests.”

They’re scared of him because they cannot buy him like they are used to buying all other politicians.

billionaires are not some monolithic group with some secret society where they all meet and anoint one of them like trump to represent them.

there are massive political differences and economic conflicts between gates, buffet, soros, steyer, kochs, and all the rest. the only commonality amongst them is that they are used to purchasing politicians. trump is not for sale so they’re totally screwed when trump gets in.
