A dictionary/glossary/lexicon as sort of a cosmic, meeting of the minds, collaboration of the likes of Dan Webster, Sam Johnson, Ambrose Bierce, Hunter S. Thompson, Wm. F. Buckley, Grouch Marx, W. C. Fields and many more... even though its editors are obscure unknowns with dreadfully dangerous senses of humor.

Loyalty Creep

Loyalty Creep: (1) The return and/or expansion of loyalty to a past authority figure who currently occupies/d a new public office with no valid governing authority (such as the Vice President). (2) The apparent expansion of authority conferred to a public official for being the first in the line of succession - even though their current/past public office has no valid governing authority.
