Ulterior motives and surrogate targets
For some reason, instinct-driven humans cannot be direct about their wants. Perhaps they do not know what they want or fear being denied. Does that make them hypocrites? Not if they are ignorant.

Disfemists
I am coining a new word because the recognized one, misogyny, is to difficult to explain. “Antifeminist” does not work because it refers to people who are opposed on the basis of their association with females. People who are antagonistic towards females need to be clearly identified because they certainly exist–in all ethnic groups, all genders and all ages. ‘Tis a universal disease whose etiology is not clear.

Codependency
So, the Financial Times has now discovered a codependency between poor Donald and the stock market which “widened the gap between traders and the real economy.” Recognizing that the gambling on Wall Street does nothing to help the real economy is a start. Why they ever trusted a failed casino manager is a puzzlement.
Yellen at Treasury is a good choice. Time to put finances in the hands of women. Men tend to let affiliation get in the way.
Association
People who define themselves in terms of their associations see nothing wrong with limiting their associations to people who are like them. It is sort of a tribal thing.

Bill Barr in it for the money?
No, he’s an autocrat, firmly believes in the superiority of some humans and their right to rule without being answerable to anyone. No reason why the holy roman empire cannot be resurrected in the new world. Remember the “New World Order?” It did not mean that the world would be orderly, but that the New World would supplant Old Europe in giving the orders. Leaders in the former USSR and the USA are agreed that the European Union is not an appropriate leader.
