Even MAGAts who are veterans know that illegal orders are subject to be disobeyed. The only justification that Dear Leaders offers them honestly is that Dear Leader openly says he wants retribution/vengeance on anybody who put him through charges, never mind that those charges were legitimate. They're fine with that, even if they admit there's no legitimacy to the current things.
