Your parents are behaving irrationally, and irrational people only respond to two things: fear and pain.
If video clips of democrats tearing up cities and demanding communism isn't enough to instill the appropriate fear of leftism in your parents, then they are probably lost until such time as they feel the pain inflicted by leftist policy.
God willing, your efforts as a Trump voter will spare them that pain.
All you can do is be polite, be kind, and keep the door open for them to eventually, hopefully step through.
That said, here are some good "puzzles" for them to work out:
-
Why was Trump not a racist for 30+ years in the public spotlight only to magically become racist the moment he ran for office against a Democrat?
-
Show them the full transcript of the "fine people" statement, in which Trump fully condemns white nationalists and neo-nazis - this blows up the racist narrative
-
Show them the RAINN stats on the rates of sexual assault among illegal Mexican immigrant girls and women, stats they were the impetus for Trump's statement regarding "Mexican rapists"
-
Tell them Joe supports both decriminalization of illegal border crossing and free healthcare for illegal immigrants. These two policy positions are mutually exclusive. Combined, they literally bankrupt the country. You can have open borders or welfare, but you can't have both.
-
Tell them the third world generates between 40 and 80 million new poor people every year, and the United States cannot realistically absorb more than 1 million a year. This means immigration is not a solution for global poverty. So what is it for? Cheap labor and votes.
