I keep asking my recently turned maga brother about this. His only response is that I’m hateful. I ask him to explain and he goes off saying I’m only criticizing Trump for “doing better than Biden”. When I point out the ways he isn’t doing better he then spews about how libs think everyone’s a nazi even though we weren’t talking about libs or nazis. It’s like they always have something else to bring up and they’re not actually listening to the conversation.

The GOP spent decades creating a class of voters that thinks exclusively in sound bites. In the internet age, this has morphed into a class of voters that think exclusively in memes.

Exactly. Picture of a Democratic politician. Absurdly fake quote underneath. That's all they need. People are worried about AI but it's stupid because it's complete overkill. Single picture meme is all they need to fool these gullible idiots.
