This is implying there is anything - any possible combination of words in the history of linguistics - that could ever convince them not to vote for Trump.

I've seen them have their reasoning destroyed in debate, even using gentle wording, even pointing to Trump's own words. They don't change as a result.

The inability to change, mental laziness and intellectual poverty don't absolve his voters of blame. They are adults and should be treated as such, thus anything else but holding them accountable for their actions is nothing but moral laziness on our part. The people voting for the candidate of "the party of personal responsibility" (what a cruel joke that is) need to take responsibility for their action.

We need to be thrice as angry with the red hatters as with the non-voters.

I know it feels worse to be betrayed by people who voted Biden not that long ago, mostly because we expect them to do better, while we have absolutely no expectations of anything positive from the Trump voters. But who is the bigger problem here? The people who ride the bus no matter where it's going or the people with their foot on the gas, accelerating towards the cliff?
