That's because Trump is a Shark and the average Americans buying dolls for their children are Minnows.

Conservatism generally believes whoever is at the top of a hierarchy deserves it by virtue of being at the top of the hierarchy, so long as they believe that person got there by merit and hard work. Minnows should be happy to scrounge for scraps. Sharks deserve everything they can get because, according to the mythos, they know what to do with the power and can wield it much more effectively than that meddling government.
