This isn't conservative reasoning, it's Trumpster reasoning. The fish rots from the head, and the Trumpster mob take their queues from one of the most disgusting campaigns I've ever seen. Donald Trump is a vile candidate that has dragged the entire primary into the gutter with his smears, lies, calling everyone names, belittling people, trashing people, rage tweets - it is only natural that Trumpsters follower their leader Trumpking into the sewer.
Most of them know perfectly well what you pointed out. That Carpenter is damned if she responds, damned if she doesn't. Trumpsters don't care about reputations ruined, lives wrecked, etc. We saw that this weekend with the endless posting of utterly ridiculous rumors, gossip, random conspiracy tweets, silly stuff like the "Candy Wrapper" interview - heck Trumps own social media director himself tweeted out a link to some of this garbage.

And then Trump goes on TV and denies his campaign has anything to do with pushing the smear. Trump makes Hillary and Obama look like Honest Abe and "I can't tell a lie" George Washington in comparison.
A proven, inveterate, pathological liar in the extreme.
Oh look. Another Tedomite abomination.
