That the gut/arse white house performer DEMANDED loyalty above all else.
Not so. LOYALTY IS DEMANDED OF HIM BY HIS BASE OR ELSE!
He knows it and they know it and so he always complies immediately to their demands because his life literally depends on it.
He will not ignore a laura or sean as they are the spokemouths for all demands of the repubbaccans.
The gut/arse white house performer knows they are all he will ever have and pleasing them is his only goal because if he displeases them they will abandon him in a heartbeat and find another pretzelizer to bend to their will. No one is kidding anyone. He has no power without them and he knows it. He rolls over begs lies down and plays dead for them. Always will. No choice.
