They're not. Our information pipe is just totally broken, people literally have no idea Trump is like this.

I don't know what your country is like, but phone apps have basically eaten a lot of my family, and others I know. Sure there are some bible thumpers and such, but mostly it's just... complete ignorance. An information diet of pure Facebook, tiktok, discord or whatever.

But my mom is still very sane and sharp, and by sheer coincidence, she has no idea how to use Facebook or any social media.
