Literally anyone who voted for him made a mistake of epic proportions. I think even billionaires like musk are regretting it.

Sure, he got all those investigation killed, but he can't be happy with his net worth going south. Billionaires had it good and got greedy and I think they're figuring out they were probably happier with someone competent at the helm even if taxes were a little higher. They always had ways to avoid taxes anyway.
