Sure, using their public face they did...sorta. All while knowing right wing radio pundits were performing lobotomies on their audiences back home. Their MAIN slogans for decades have been farcical. Law & order, family values, fiscal cons, workers party...
The gop has operated the largest & most sophisticated misinformation media network in history for decades. Right wing radio, pods, TV, print, all targeting the vulnerable, special interest groups, least educated or oftentimes too busy to interrogate info they've trusted for yrs.
