When Trump told Comey "I need loyalty, I expect loyalty", what did he mean?

Did he mean

(A) loyalty to the United States of America, or...

(B) loyalty to Donald Trump.

Gee, that's a toughie, isn't it? Could be a close call. Maybe one of you with a star membership could create a poll.

Narcissists expect others to not only be loyal to them but to agree with everything they say and to obey every order they give. The moment you dare to disagree with a narcissist, even mildly, you are no longer being loyal to them, and they will make you pay the price for your "disloyalty".

I'm a daughter of a narcissist. I know of what I speak.

Very Soprano like. I actually think Tony said that to Christopher. But to answer the question. Trump doesnt give a fuck about America. So I would guess loyality to him.

Some kind of understanding?

They need to get Trump under oath and ask him.

that he really thought he was being installed as some sort of king, and that he actually believed all the stupidity Faux was spewing between 2009 - 2017 about President Obama being a dictator. He's so fucking stupid that he actually thought that he could just make laws unenforceable against him, as he was the president.

It's mind boggling how ignorant and stupid he is, and him thinking he could just 'put the squeeze' on folks who are also extremely powerful is a testament to it. Combine that with extreme narcissism and gobs and gobs of hubris and there you have it.

Hopefully it costs him his job and his fortune, as his legacy is already in the toilet where it belongs.

Trump places no value in (A). None. Still, it is awfully funny!
