This idea that they supported Trump because they like the sexual deviancy, adultery, celebrity etc - what basis is there for it?

He is a literal Christian icon and prophet to these people, sent by god to lead us
Edit: They're not voting for him because he's a liberal sexual pro-choice deviant (now successfully playing a fictional character of a conservative presidential figure), they're voting for him despite those things because they believe he is a prophet sent from God to restore the Christian white man's position in America before the end times. When you're chosen by god to lead, it doesn't matter as much if you have a decades-long public stance of being pro-choice and pro-gay marriage, etc.
