Donald Trump is desperate for money, and the few GOP donors who have opened their wallets for the man know this. Thats why they are on their hands and knees begging Charles and David Koch to support Trump in the election. Ring of Fires Farron Cousins discusses this.

Loses mean an opportunity to buy and cash in later.
Destruction of our country and the economy are what they are striving for it will line thier purses.
It may burst the purse.
Money is all that matters to the ones in the picture you posted.

The rich assets are tied up in corporate projects and many illiquid assets.
In a big crash, asset values fall and cash is king -- on this point you are correct. But the Kochs and other 0.1 % can't convert assets to cash to buy other assets when all assets are devaluing.
If Trump were to win (heaven forfend), expect a fire sale on the stock market and some other assets between November 9 and January.
Even so, the other posters are right, fatcats don't want a Trump win. They do not run their businesses the way Trump does: not paying bills and periodically giving creditors a bath in bankruptcy.
