I think a lot of people think trump is good for economy for reasons like stripping away environmental regulations. Sure it might make a company cheaper to operate without regulations but often times it is exponentially more expensive to deal with the damages.

That's way more complex thinking that what people actually do around this. They think he's good for the econony because he's rich, or at least plays rich on TV.

CEOs may see him as good for business because rhey believe he'll make running their businesses cheaper, but the average Trump voter just sees "rich = good with money", because most people ultimately believe that the world is on some level fair, and if he's rich it must mean he got there fairly.
