Now that it's clear Trump isn't going away, everyone around the Clintons is going to start turning coat and approaching him to swear allegiance and bargain for a piece of steak. Mark my words. By the time Trump is inaugurated, everyone including the NYT and the WaPo will be licking his boots and lauding how great a president he is. This is just one instance of this happening.

Although it's pathetic, that's human nature, and it's good for Trump. It's a natural consequence of holding power. Given how pretty much everybody was caught with their pants down supporting unspeakable dregs, they have zero bargaining power and are like deers caught in the headlights. Trump is going to have a walk in the park doing his shopping, and get anything he wants really easily. That means that he will have plenty of leeway to manoeuvre, so much that he can afford to throw under the bus very powerful people. People like Mark Dorsey . And very soon, people like Clintons and the Podestas. Just look at how Obama has already started to back off.
