Unfortunately, propaganda is effective, and people really fall for conspiracy theories or drink the Kool Aide thinking the party actually cares. Most of the time its due to muddy waters on what candidates have done. There are still people who really believe Trump is a person on the "outside" trying to drain the swamp for us, combine that with people getting shafted/ignored/used by the democratic party and its a party.

Even if there was a swamp to drain, they're replacing it with a sewage field.

Ironically there is a swamp to drain, it's just Trump and the special interests along with selfish politicians and SCOTUS folks selling out the electorate.

I'm going to be completely honest, when I was younger (like, 10, cause this was 2 election cycles ago) I heard "Drain the Swamp" and I full on thought Trump was going to actually drain swampland, like tear it down, remove the water, etc.
