"You gotta go after the families".
That was the Trump quote that made me horrified at anyone who still supported him. Child murderer.
Notably, he has a (adult) nephew that has stood on the side of justice and I bear no ill will to her.
He has said and done so many things that would get anyone kicked out of politics 25 years ago. Howard Dean's campaign was scrubbed for an enthusiastic yell. Trump supporters are the main reason why I think democracy is doomed to fail, unless we can find a fair and unbiased way to remove the most vile, stupid and gullible people from the voting pool.
The narrative war has shifted, because "mass media" can now be targeted to a specific audience/person.
In days of old, the narrative needed consistency. It needed dignity. It needed to survive the scrutiny of swing voters as well as the hardcore base. But now, the narrative shifts from person to person. A conservative Republican voter might see articles about how Trump is cutting taxes for businesses, but they won't hear much about the very real concerns - corruption, pedophilia, mental health issues.
And since AI can generate article after article, there's never a lack of propaganda for people like this. They happily scroll their newsfeed, believing every lie.
