Honestly, I’m pretty sure this is how my grandparents ended up MAGAts. They’re old, in their 90s and their brains are fried. They used to be fairly intelligent, but they can barely think rationally anymore. They still managed to get out to vote for Trump somehow, even after promising everyone in my family that they wouldn’t. They believed that the left is lying just as hard, if not harder, than the right. I don’t know what their views are now that Trump is president again. I don’t talk to them much anymore…
An important thing to note here is that the things your grandparents here are confirming what they already feel to some extent.
You know, they see men dressing as women for drag shows and they feel that there is something weird and unnatural about it. It’s not difficult at all for a demagogue to take that feeling and turn it into bigotry.

If only there was a left wing maybe they would have voted…
