This. Their marriage is similar to bill and Hilary's where its pretty much for advancing each others career then genuine love. They are extremely loyal to each other but they probably aren't the slightest sexually attracted to each other. Frank strikes me as a dude who cares about power and loyalty to him more then anything. That's why he ducking degraded Zorn like that. Cause he can. That's why he fukking Meechem first. Because dude is loyal as fukking to him
That's how I saw it too.
From the first episode after Frank got did dirty, he came home and Claire was like: "I thought you would be more angry. Why didn't you see this coming? We don't lose" yada yada yada. The way she said it was so cold and frigid. Not like a wife, but like a business partner almost. That's how I saw their relationship from the start. I wasn't THAT surprised he was a fakkit, especially after the episode he went back home and had that weird ass conversation with his friend
