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.

I got a cousin around my age that's wholeheartedly Trump. Young black dude, with dreads and tats. But he's so far into conspiracy theories, he goes off the rails with basic rebuttals.
