He will flock to anyone who flatters him or is nice to him. He knows he is the most hated person on the planet.

Let's face it - Bannon was the source of the ultra right-wing evil.
Cheeto doesn't have any principles of his own, he just does whatever somebody tells him to do.

It's why he wants the GOP health care bill which has nothing he promised on the campaign trail to pass. He doesn't care, won't be around for the consequences. He just wants wins to brag about. He's really stupid, vain, and destructive.

He might be trying to rack up a favor so he can expect something back. Perhaps some protection for his son who was under the gun on the day his father was making the deal with the Dems. You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours.

He doesn't care what just something so he can say he got something done.

He leaped at the opportunity to "make a deal", not knowing any of the details, and got rolled.
