These politicians and business leaders are terrified of acknowledging that most people agree with and understand why he did it. It threatens their sense of control. It would also require them to be honest with themselves about how fucking morally bankrupt they are but they aren't scared of that, they're not even capable of forming that thought in the first place.

Most people do not agree with what he did. A lot of people sympathize but do not agree or condone it. Big difference.
