There appears to be no amount of fact checking that can sway Trump supporters. As evidence, consider the content linked below.

LOL you are one of those Hillbots who vehemently denies the obvious fact that she is corrupt, unlikeable, incompetent, and robotic, right?

They're in a continual state of denial.

I am not an HRC fan and know that she is a liar, as are *ALL* politicians; really, it comes with the territory. But Trump is not just a liar, but also a racist, a bully, and stupid all at the same time. That's a deadly combo. At least HRC is not racist or stupid. Cunning? Yes. Stupid, no.

Hillary is bad. Trump is million times worse.

All candidates and politicians are corrupt to some degree.
Hillary is very competent.
As for likeability and roboticism, I hope you don't select your experts, especially the ones who run a country, based on that.

....not to mention plain evil. So unfortunate because I'd like to vote for a woman.

But, see, trump is even worse in the evil liar department. I'm not saying it's a great choice, but please do the comparison.

Vote 3rd party if you must, but please don't use an argument against HRC when the Donald is worse in spades.

Please you can use the same words to describe HRC. Ask Obama if Hllary went after him on race? What about the server issue- stupid yes. Her constant use of the gender card- Bernie bros to describe the opposition. Using the DNC to attack her opponents. She is the same as Trump. You just refuse to see it.

She's not corrupt, unlikeable, incompetent or robotic. You suffer from Clinton Derangement Syndrome. And that condition is impervious to fact.

It's so easy to slap labels on Hillary (conveniently provided by the conservative wing nuts) with no facts to support your claims. But when presented with irrefutable evidence that Trump is utterly unqualified to serve, you shrug it off. "At least he's not Hillary."

Neither is my neighbor's pet ferret, but I wouldn't vote for it for president either.

I don't think they necessarily are resistant to facts as they don't care. It's all about their "team" winning. Some democrats may be afflicted with this too but not anywhere near the same degree. Democrats, for all their disagreements and faults, do believe and shred on a core set of principles. And if a charismatic populist came doing who betrayed all those principles (including by acting like a bigoted, misogynistic sociopath) but promised to "win" the presidency for the party, the vast majority of democrats won't go along with that. And that is why republicans are shrinking as a party but democrats are growing. Trump is not for small government, rational foreign policy, promoting trade, strengthening business, controlling entitlements, etc etc. all the things that moderate republicans have been arguing for decades as what the party is about (and declaring that democrats were the ones unfairly vilifying them as racists and bigots). Well, we see what's left standing and the monster those so called "moderate" republican leaders are supporting. I'm not gloating - I grew up a democrat but did not mind most republican leaders. Loved Alex P Keaton too. It makes me sad to see what the Reoublican party has become.
