> Facts do matter, and I think it's disingenuous to really argue that they don't, even to the American electorate.

Facts matter, but emotion matters more. Foe example, some Trump supporters believe that parts of the US are now governed by Sharia law. The fact is wrong, but the underlying fear and racism is real and so much more powerful. The fact doesn't really matter.
