It's possible that his views were conflicted.

I have family whose politics I understand pretty well, and I don't know who they voted for. What I do know is that they were torn between: "Trump's blatant antisemitism is a danger to us here in America" and "Trump is good for Israel".

Ouch, two reasons not to vote for Trump, IMO...

Genocide the natives and take their land? It does sound very American to be fair.

... can't argue with that

As far as I'm concerned they're there the same reason; ethnonationalism is a coherent ideology. But explaining that to them is not going to get me anywhere.

Coherent is not equivalent to morally correct.

Oh lol I know someone like this. My (older) brother hates black people, but he is also smart enough to vote for Harris because we weren't born here and he doesn't want to be on the receiving end of racism. Now that's what I assumed anyways, he never told me who he voted for. But he spoke against trump and said he's a racist and doesn't like trump, and spoke positively of Biden, saying that "at least Biden didn't use Asian Americans as scapegoats [referring to covid], while that's what trump did", but he also refuse to recognize that he (my brother) himself is a racist lol.

People are so weird.
