The satisfaction of finally ordering things as they properly should have been, if you had been consulted, as you weren't, but should have been. The joy of retaining position, power, authority - or acquiring it. The relief that the things and people you fear are being dealt with. The intoxication of mass approval, that the winds are at your back.

Control and safety and security. Powerful draws indeed.
