Hey it's me your average voter. Over the last four years I've recognized and processed 239 salient points that should inform my choice of president. However. I can only hold two or three ideas in my mind at once and I have no concept of the past or future. Jingle some "border invasion" or "Israel committing genocide" keys in front of me and I'll forget everything else.
Work to end the two-party duopoly and I might start to believe it matters that Democrats aren't as bad as Trump.
EDIT: So demanding support for actual democratic reforms from "democrats" is beyond the pale now? If the Republicans are so different from Democrats, how come they're the only party Dems are willing to consider governing with?
I think you have that the wrong way around. The reason Democrats can get away with being merely preferable to the GOP is because we have a de-facto 2 party system.

Both sides are genocide enablers and should be trialed at The Hague, yes.
You wanna know Trump's real power? Look at the size of all of those issues on his side. They are all the same fucking size. "Jan 6th" is the same size as "grammer" but they get lumped together. Next week a new piece of bullshit gets thrown on and further distorts the magnitude of an issue like insurrection.

"He's old" is not a valid criticism. "Israel", on the other hand, is a big fucking problem. And if genocide isn't a deal-breaker for Democrats, I have to wonder what is.

We have a corporate media that profits off their "both sides" narratives. Then we go around and mocked people for believing the lies those at the top feed us which is bullshit.
We live in a society of specializations where we rely on each other. If oncology doctors privately laughed at their patients for buying snake oil they sold, maybe we should blame oncology and not the patients who frankly have no way to treat cancer themselves.
