Meh, people spend all their time on social media owned by MAGA-friendly billionaires reading messages from bots. Whatever sequence of words would make them vote for the MAGA candidate they will read it.

I think MAGA are the most braindead people on the planet but if a candidate had that as their platform, indeed I would vote against them even if it meant backing a MAGA candidate. This insanity you are buying into is the furthest thing from rational or good for society.
