Why do Republican voters always recite false information?

I suspect that many of them simply don't know how to use the internet to research information. What other explanation is there for such widespread ignorance? Or perhaps they all lack critical thinking skills.

Some are simply too lacking in intelligence to research and understand the facts. For them, they need to be told. That makes them easy prey for a conman like tRump.

For others, the lies corroborate their distorted view of facts. They have the ability to understand. They just choose not to.

Lastly, there are the tRump voters that deep down know what a truly despicable person tRump is. They just lack the character to admit it.
 
Could you provide us some samples of what you mean?

Some Facebook post from a Novelle Knight, “A REPORT FROM LAS VEGAS”, about ANTIFA and the locals gathering to fend them off. Novelle Knight lives somewhere in East Texas. No reports of any such incident in the local media.

A Facebook post supposedly by some black guy named Adam Butsch, advocating public hanging of white people. And a concurrent claim that Facebook would not remove said post. More race-baiting bullshit circulated by the right.

The same kind of RW bullshit and lies I see on this forum.

I would be not be in the least surprised if those are Russian trolls. That's the exact discord they attempted to sow in 2016.

Wrong. They have sites that cater to their preconceptions. They only follow those sites, so misinformation becomes their reality.

As General Kelly said, if you are strictly watching Fox you are uninformed
