And you NEVER hear the corollary: "he likes the people they like". For a reason? He likes Putin, Xi, Kim, Orbán - how many Americans of any stripe "like" those guys?

People like to think of themselves as loyal, and they fail to recognize that by supporting the washed-up has-been Felon45, they are being disloyal to America. Also, yes, the sunk-cost fallacy, and their fear of being seen as, or having to think of themselves as, failures as a consequence of having backed the wrong horse. So they choose the lesser loyalty over the greater.
