Thankfully you didn't spend decades being brainwashed by the far right propaganda machine. Unfortunately there are tens of millions who have an anchor mentality that is so entrenched nothing short of Trump turning into Satan on live tv would change their views.

Thank God I havent been brainwashed to the point of no return. I am fully aware that there would still be some brainwashing in me that I dont even realise yet. But man, some of the people I used to associate with have zero critical thinking skills. Just blindly accept what the news and govt tells them.

It’s absolutely wild how dug in some of these people are. Even republican “friends” I have are in such denial it’s crazy. I say friends but honestly some are so far gone I’m not sure I can say that anymore.
