They don't care if you nominate a shit sandwich for president. They will line up behind it and shout its praises. They have no ethical standard toward earning their vote, just that they aren't a Democrat.

From an old post:

Remember the last time Gilmore ran for President?

Despite being the head of the GOP following his term as Governor, Gilmore only raised

$174,790, the second lowest of any of the major-party candidates. Gilmore hosted only one fundraiser in the first quarter due to a late exploratory announcement.

So what does he do differently in 2016? He announces even later.

You can't make this stuff up.
