Frank's mistake

Frank is a smart politician, smart and scheming, full of desire and reason, so he is extremely confident, so he does not trust other people, he is undoubtedly a successful model in the career of a politician.
But he made two fatal mistakes throughout the play, and both of these mistakes were related to women. It can be said that he understands the human nature of power too much and ignores other elements of human nature.
The first mistake, he should not have sex with Zoe. People can be bullied and lured, and can control him from his desires. Frank has done it, but he does it to Zoe, whether it is due to his vanity, or he wants to further control Zoe, or both. Both, in short, he got on Zoe. This did allow him to further control Zoe, but it also gave Zoe a weight that in turn intimidated Frank. Frank may think that a small person like Zoe can't afford to make trouble for him, but he himself uses Zoe to constantly beat his opponents. Zoe is a clever man. Frank also understands, but he mistakenly took Zoe. This kind of cleverness is regarded as maturity. Zoe is smart but immature. For a more mature media person, you should know that maintaining a long-term strategic relationship with a congressman like Frank is definitely more valuable than betraying him to get a short-term big benefit. Frank thought Zoe understood, but it was a pity that Zoe did not. And Frank got on Zoe and gave Zoe the qualification to challenge Frank, so Zoe used her sexual desires several times to ask Frank for news. She simply forgot that she was just Frank’s pawn, not a deal. partner. But Frank also realized this mistake later, and agreed with Zoe as a partner, in fact, it is still a pawn. Part of Zoe’s final betrayal was the unhappy retaliation of Frank’s unfair trade, and the desire for quick success. She wanted news, wanted to hit the news, and then she was bewitched by Jane. , Well, bewitched a bit reluctantly, but obviously Jane wants big news and then encourages Zoe. Zoe's understanding of interests is still immature, so she chooses to betray. Let's make an assumption about Zoe's betrayal of Frank. If she fails, then there is nothing to say. How will Frank sanction her or make further use of her is a matter of editing. If she succeeds, what is the chance that she will completely defeat Frank? To be thorough, with Frank’s ability, there is still a slight respite, and then it will reignite. Although it is difficult to reach the previous height, it will be It shouldn't be a big deal to be able to "tender" Zoe to death.

The second mistake is Frank's husband and wife relationship. Many people feel that their husband and wife relationship is very harmonious. But Frank and her wife had a fundamental difference. Frank took power as the basis for everything, but her wife betrayed her for a batch of 200,000 foreign supplies. And this lays a big problem for Frank's final crisis. Russell’s defeat in the election meant that Frank had missed a move, a big move. Therefore, he finally sought wealth and wealth, confessed his purpose to Linda, and went to the headquarters of Sankoh to play a game with Tanske (although it is not mentioned in the play that he and Tanske have any deal, but there is no doubt that Frank It would not be a cheap price to become a vice president, and the director deliberately did not shoot it. It might be a foreshadowing.) These are all caused by the disagreement between him and Claire. Claire is a smart and mature woman, but she doesn't understand politics after all, so she thinks that she only betrayed Frank once, but she doesn't know that politics is a game of Go, and the pieces are deadly. And Frank's mistake was that he didn't really understand women and politics. Or he didn't understand his wife, so her wife would cheat.

In short, he studied men and power too deeply, and assimilated women. .

    In the eighth episode, I saw a little bit of humanity, but I didn't expect it to turn to the end afterwards.
