Surprise, the billionaire class is not a monolith. This election is basically two different groups of billionaires feuding over how they want to America to be run. Some want a plutocracy where they swear allegiance to Donald Trump. Others want to go back to the shadows and have our corruption be less publicly visible. U.S. elections are always going to be Money vs Money, because corporate interests are always the ones operating the American government.
