people don't need the job. They often were better off before becoming part of Trump's administration. I have little doubt that Trump has kompromat on quite a few of his loyal people and they fear a lot more than just being fired.

Lindsey Graham is a prime example. I'd wager that Trump definitely has dirt on Lindsey who used to be relatively normal.
