    They have their lifetime appointments already

    This is the one thing that gives me hope. They’re already at the top of their field, they’re there for life, no one can take it from them and they get shovels full of money heaped upon them all day every day. Trump has nothing to give them. He’s also a private citizen right now, and has nothing to threaten them with. If they help him win the presidency, they stand nothing to gain from him but they could lose their power and their lavish lifestyles if he sufficiently fucks up the current power structure.
