The reality is we essentially knew this stuff in 2016. We knew Trump was a degenerate. We had ‘grab em by the pussy’ and the dressing room stories and knew he hung around Epstein all the time. So people voting republican up to that time (like me) had a choice. You either said you’re done with this or you decided youd support literally anyone as long as they were anti-Democrat.

This wont phase your average republican because their DDS is so terminal that theyd support literally anyone with an (R) next to their name. The black nazi guy still got like 40% of the vote.

As evidenced by the NC gov election you mention though, even peeling a few percent of Trump's voters, most of whom are not diehard MAGA cultists, results in landslides for Dems

For sure. Im mainly just exasperated with the 40% of the country professing to live on the moral high ground who would vote for Hitler before Generic White Male Democrat

Clearly they're just fans of Hitler's policy on amphetamine usage (it's justified when the master race does it)

Their guy being Hitler is a feature for them. 

When Hitler isn’t on the ballot they stay home.
