[Batman] how is the Joker so bloody successful?

The guy is clinically insane, isn't that charismatic and kills most of the people he enters into an agreement with. He has no powers and is on the top of Batman's list, as well as many others. 

How does this guy still exist, much less still pull diabolical shit regularly? He can barely think straight, logically nobody would want to work for or with him, everybody hates the guy and he has really no way to protect himself. What gives?

>he can barely think straight

That's a misleading statement. Joker is crazy, yes, but he's crazy like a fox. The Joker is a tactical genius, able to mastermind extremely complex plans. What makes him so formidable is his brilliance combined with an utter disregard for morality. Everyone is afraid of him, and rightly so.

As far as thugs go, some of them work for him because they know he's crazy, but he also has a better track record of success than many of Batman's other villains. Plus, sometimes he'll get minions who are just obsessed with him, so they're easy to use. Like the Joker gangs in Inustice or Batman Beyond.
