People don't know anything about anything, generally. Any sort of political discussion is incredibly frustrating because there's no agreement on very basic facts. We can't even get to the point where we discuss our values or what we think are the best ways to achieve those values, because we can't even agree on basic things like whether vaccines save lives or which places are wealthier.

Just look at all the nonsense around tariffs. This was a huge thing with this admin, and people generally don't know what they are!

American politics are stuck in an endless debate where everyone think's they are rubber and everyone else is glue, we've not progressed beyond kindergarten in our collective debates
