9. Trump voters are inherently stupid; Putin has no ability to make them that inherently stupid.

Let me give you an example.

There's a manager where I work at who voted for Trump. When I told him that Trump was going to implement Project 2025 when he returns to power, this manager told me not to worry. He said he had done his research on Project 2025, told me that he himself was strongly against it, but that there was no cause to worry because Trump said he was not involved with it. I didn't even bother to try to explain how obvious it was that Trump lied when he said that. If he couldn't figure that out even after doing "research," then he's a lost cause.
