They don't have to be the smartest or even necessarily the strongest. But imagine a troop of gorillas following a gorilla without, seemingly, a single useful trait. He needs them to even survive, takes advantage of all of them, pretends like he's tough, takes all of the resources, isn't remotely physically fit and won't release the Epstein files because he's in them. You would not see that in the wild.

Yeah, but you would see one lead the pack who knows how to socially manipulate them and play off others weaknesses.
