They don’t truly CARE about Jussie as much as they care about the sixth season being successful so they can secure enough episodes to be approved for syndication. The cast wants to secure their future in making sure that in their older years, a check will still be coming in as EMPIRE airs on various secondary networks. Without Jussie, they know there is no successful sixth season. This is about other people’s careers & finances. Terrance Howard is NOT in support of Jussie on a personal note.
