I mean, tens of millions of people voted for this. So even if social media sentiment is mostly bot-driven, it's provably backed up or supported by what real people deeply believe and want and will continue to vote for in mid-terms.
I think one of the issues is that bots can flood the zone faster than reasonable/rational humans can counter them.
Bots are not necessary for indoctrination, Fox does that already. But bots help creating dissent and make people busy defending against all the crap.
