Sadly, I'm finding out that a friend I've known for several decades does not, indeed, have a properly functioning brain. It's been consumed with mindless TDS. I've been hanging in there with the relationship for a while now, ignoring her wokeness...but I'm not sure it'll survive much longer, especially if she keeps at me to defend my support of Trump.
I told her that I'm not interested in shoving the most evil shit into her face just so she understands. She'll deny everything, and my diving into those dark places will bear no fruit.
But that's exactly what team dark wants...to cut the weak ones out of the herd because they're easy pickin's. Hopefully, she can just leave it so we talk about the millions of other things there are to discuss.
I have maintained a good relationship with a (very misguided, imo) friend by addressing the issue head on. Agree to disagree and never discuss politics. She's an intelligent woman but completely blind on this topic. No good to come of discussing it, so save the good that's left in the relationship and enjoy each day. Remember, it takes two to fight. I gets tiresome to just live your life in an echo chamber.
True. My daughter is on board, and siblings are either Trump supporters or they just don't want to say. We don't really have political discussions, and I can pretty much assume that all will vote for Trump. Parents are no longer on the Earth plane, but my Dad was a life member of the NRA.
I've personally had friends that I'm closer to than I am with the sibs, and close friends don't grow on trees. It still sucks.

Makes me sad, though...
