That's because his supporters worship him as a new messiah and cannot conceive of him having actually committed a crime. Or they don't care if he did or not.

They don't care if he did. I'd argue most of his supporters in the party (Mike Johnson for example) know that he is a horrible person but will support him because he has energized a dormant portion of the voting population that can help them to gain and hold power. Trump himself isn't even that bad, he's a useful idiot who gives immense power to far right organizations like the heritage foundation.

They view him as an imperfect tool of the lord

That is a chill-inducing phrase.

I know these people, I was one before I learned better, should they gain the authority they seek it will be worse than you think

dormant portion of the voting population

The South shall rise again against the War of Northern aggression!!!
