You're on to something. The social media sites are definitely reaching a lot of people, and presumably reaching a lot of voters.

Maybe people aren't as brainwashed by the celebrities as I insist they are, but I noticed a lot more of them (than usual) chiming in against Trump prior to the 2020 election. The Democrats have a million tools at their disposal, so they're just using everything they got.
