They know trump will destroy the economy in a heartbeat. He will replace all U.S. currency with Trump Bucks, only redeemable at one of his shitty hotels or model the Department of Education after Trump University.

They know they are going to get dragged through shit just like the rest of us if he wins. The dems might raise their taxes a bit but Trump could very well lead us to a pre-historic bartering system where it costs 3 chickens for a roll of toilet paper.
