Most of the Trump supporters I know (not full on MAGA but evangelical) assume the media is taking quotes out of context and are more worried about the Democrats ruining the economy and destroying the country's Christian roots than anything Trump does. I don't think they explicitly support violence, but they also don't realize how violent the things they do support are and once they do I don't think they'll care since at least it's their religion doing it.
