You said so yourself that they seem him as unfit and immoral. It just doesn't matter. If Satan were a Republican, they'd vote for him.
It is not enough to defame him. You have provided something better.
In previous eras Democrats would have taken the tactic to move many of their positions back towards the center, or even to the right, and include their own specific pet liberal topics which have mass voter appeal. This is why it is said that Democrats were more conservative at various points in time. They sought to match the success of their opponents with some added liberalism, largely focusing on the strength and appeal of their positions.
So what does it say about a group that would vote for anyone except a democrat?
