They Thought They Were Free is an excellent book that interviews Germans shortly after WWII. Even post-defeat, many nazi party members fervently stood by the party or at least feigned ignorance to the atrocities.

Everyone should alsp listen to the podcast Ultra from Rachel Maddow and see the parallels of nazi influence in the US at the direction of Hitler that reached as far as Congress, to what Russia has been doing today.
