FWIW, the algorithm people use in politics is usually to find someone who is on the same emotional wavelength as they are, then copy their actions. Trying to reason with people about political matters is generally futile because they don't take a particularly close interest in real politics and rationally don't make decisions based on arguments because they don't understand or remember any of the issues in detail. Although arguing is a lot of fun if you like arguing; and it can help sharpen the mind. Your arguments are going to be wildly unpersuasive because your parents don't understand why they're voting the way they vote. They just know that their emotional state is represented at Fox & Fox suggests voting for Trump. The same dynamic is true for pretty much everyone except the rare souls who like to actually look up how & why politicians vote in practice (which most people don't have time to do). Try figuring out what emotions your parents are feeling and why. Even if you don't change their minds you'll probably get to a better spot in the relationship than if you're trying to convince them Kamala was a strong candidate (which, given her record, tough sell - how does a strong candidate lose to Hitler, we might ask to annoy everyone).
