7. You seem to be approaching this situation logically.

To understand it, you need to stop looking at it logically and look at it from the emotional perspective of people who have been told for the last 40 years that the America they know and love, has been infiltrated by people who are not like them, who want to destroy all of the values they cherish, and who literally want to replace them and subjugate them.

If they are Republican/Conservative, then they are likely getting their news from Fox, right wing radio, or internet sources. The above message is repeated daily on those outlets.

They are willing to accept disgraced politicians who had to resign, or who have been kicked off all committees, or who are being investigated for sex trafficking of minors; so long as those candidates protect them from the "scary people" who want to destroy America.
