Ironically he is quite literally part of some of their clubs, and owns them, that resort he owns and goes to at the weekends has doubled it's annual fee from $100,000 to $200,000 last month. But less literally he has large business interests across the world he hasn't put into a blind trust, appointed people form Wall Street, rolled back some of the post-2008 banking reforms and won't release his tax returns.
Maybe he'll prove to be the antidote to it although obviously I believe he won't. Still one of the most interesting things about Trump is how well he tapped into that feeling despite previously being almost the embodiment of the rich capitalist throwing their weight around. Before all the Obama stuff kicked off he seemed to play up to that image as well with golden TRUMP logos across a never ending array of products and private clubs marketed on their exclusivity and high prices - a status symbol. One skill he clearly does have is a keen sense of the public mood, especially on television.
