You overestimate how foolish people were. The liberals and leftists knew, but the disengaged voters who won Trump the election didn't. I talked to some of these people. It was easy for them to put their hope in Trump because it was hard to put any hope in Democrats. TikTok bans and genocide complicity were but a few bricks in the wall. It was a pattern of disregard that few could ignore.
Liberalism died with a pathetic whimper
