I'm not sure it even matters currently. I've got friends who vote Republican, knowing stuff about their party/candidate which makes the uncomfortable (or worse). They still keep voting Republican, mostly because "democrats will kill babies and take away my guns and social security!". They've had more than a decade of "worst motives" ascribed to the opposition.
---
Republicans: decades of "they'll take away our guns!"
Democrats: "that's not going to happen."
Decades later, doesn't happen.
---
Democrats: decades of "they're going to take away your access to abortion/contraception"
Republicans: "meh... nah... why are you so paranoid?"
Decades later... access to abortion heavily restricted, on track for total bans in many regions.
