Anyone paying attention knew decades ago that Trump doesn't care if anyone thinks he's corrupt, as long as a critical mass of people worships him. We knew long before he entered politics that he's extremely fragile, and if that worship ever falls below a critical mass it will literally kill him. But what we have learned more recently, and are still in shock over, is how that critical mass of worshippers also knows he's corrupt, and wouldn't have it any other way.
