    Because when Daenerys started to burn down Cersei's lackeys that were too dumb to kneel, her whole army including the north's auxiliaries went "hell yeah!" and joined the cleansing of King's Landing. You don't see a single of Daenerys soldiers going "oh noes our queen is mad after all", they instead go "our queen is awesome, let's keep supporting her!".

    Except Jojo Snow, but considering GoT's average rate of backstabbing, a single dude turning is as close to perfection as you get.
