Yes, but only about a third of voters are hard-core MAGA. There's a big group in the middle that pays less attention to politics, and swung for Trump mostly for economic reasons.
- spauldo 1y agoYou don't have to be hardcore MAGA to buy the bullshit. You just have to have the right assumptions beforehand, a limited and biased source of information, and enough lack of interest to not question what you're told. When you're surrounded by similar people with one or two true believers in the mix, you have to make a conscious effort to hear the other side. A lot of people don't do that. "Economy sucks, oh it's Biden's fault? Figures."
