Oh, I absolutely believe that. There is no gotcha moment for them. Even if the SOB is frogmarched off to prison, they'd view him as a martyr, and some of them may even get violent over it (again). Until then, every single crime he gets away with is something they view as "winning" by proxy. That whole "grabbing them by the pussy" is a great example of this. They pretended they thought people were upset about him saying "pussy", when he was really bragging about sexually assaulting women, and getting away with it. And they well know this was the issue; they just pretend it was all over language. Just "locker room talk", bla bla blah. Deep down, many of them take special glee in knowing donnie has and will continue to get away with this sort of thing...

Most of them are probably absolutely powerless, and just white xtian cishet men that are butthurt they are not the center of the universe any more and no longer can push people around like they used to. But they see donnie doing it, and they think this "owns the libs". It gets them absolutely nothing of course, but their dumb culture war nonsense goads this kind of stuff on...
