because his victory emboldens and vindicates them and their twisted vision for America (and they are being enriched financially.)

I have a close relative who is wealthy, successful, with prestigious MBA but writes articles spreading the most inane vile anti-Obama and pro-Trump nonsense in a pseudo-sholarly manner. Throughout the Obama years, my relative has always taped over his laptop's camera because he is sure he is a target due to his political rantings. These people will spread (and believe) any conspiracy theory that protects Trump and Repubs from fallout of corruption and collusion and incompentency.
