I've watched my MIL completely lose all capability of critical thinking since becoming a trump supporter. She was a very smart person with good education and great street smarts, but by their words they didn't like when Obama met only with democratic party leadership shortly after becoming president, and therefore voted for trump in 2016. At the time they would've been split ticket voters, voting Trump for president, but vocally in opposition to our republican governor at the time. The by the pandemic they were spouting nonsense that was opposing basic germ theory (MIL was a nurse for a while!) and now all of her kids are socially and emotionally separating from her more and more. For someone with 4 kids who's all about their family, she sure is doing a great job of alienating her entire family!
So yeah, I strongly believe that becoming part of Trump's cult of personality harms peoples ability to think critically about anything based on my anecdata
