    I perceive this as a loyalty test. Trump will see who opposes Gaetz and put them on his enemies list. Then he’ll eliminate them to "drain the swamp. "

      Our loyalty is due entirely to the United States. It is due to the President only and exactly to the degree in which he efficiently serves the United States. It is our duty to support him when he serves the United States well. It is our duty to oppose him when he serves it badly.

      –Teddy Roosevelt

        That’s how it should work, but anyone expecting that from the Trump administration and his subservient partisans is delusional.
