Hillary is a crook even though she has never been found at fault after dozens of investigations by republicans over the last 30 years. Trump is honest even though courts have found him guilty of fraud and misconduct many times.
The Clinton Foundation is dirty, but Trumps charity is the one that got shut down by the courts for corruption.
It is amazing how this goes, but you're on point here. They'd rather believe that there is some deep state conspiracy that caused this to happen. The reality is much more benign, though. There is no way a conspiracy that large would ever be able to happen. Plus, you know Occam's Razor and all. The simplest answer is that Hillary Clinton knows how to play the game within the legal bounds and Trump is as crooked as they come.
