Trump is not only consistently underestimated, he fosters that! Don’t worry. That Ryan/Pence stuff is still TBD, imho.

I do believe that Q is trying to teach us lessons about trust and loyalty — the same lessons that Jeff Bridges taught to his young crewmen in the movie White Squall.
Obviously, we should never speak ill of our POTUS, because insubordination divides the team and hurts morale.
On the other hand, there WILL be times when we doubt POTUS, rightly or wrongly, because we're human and POTUS is human.
Even the greatest commander can be fooled by bad or ill-intentioned advisors.
In cases where we believe (rightly or wrongly) that there might be traitors leading POTUS astray, we should direct our criticism toward the alleged traitors, not toward POTUS.
In fact, identifying possible traitors and subjecting them to rigorous scrutiny is — in my humble opinion — one of our most important jobs, and one of the best ways we can help POTUS and help the team.
Just my 2 cents.
you pack a lot into your posts! Thanks!
