Lotsa folks stick up for the underdog. The guy who has the deck stacked against him. Why would anyone stick up for a bully monster liar?

What bully monster liar ever needs sticking up for? Makes no sense unless of course sticker uppers are afraid of him in which case voicing fealty and love forever more is mandatory for survival. Otherwise? Beats me!   Cheering for the boxer who has already beaten his opponent to a pulp and killed him deader than a doornail seems weird. But it's done all the time. For a why I cannot fathom.
