1. Putin - but above all, big business.

As a group (with exceptions), they've never been comfortable with democracy - and they see Cheeto as their big chance to impose a thinly-veiled autocracy, in their service.

As you know, all fascist regimes over the past century have risen to power through corporate backing.

If their Trump gambit fails, you can be sure they'll try again with some other GOPee fast-talker.
