    i've found a lot of his voters are literally just the most uninformed people imaginable who saw 3 of his campaign ads and were won over by cheap/vague populism (and the family name)

    i saw a bunch of likely progressive types supporting him in a tiktok comment section and i mentioned how he was zionist, transphobic, anti-vax, etc. and got a couple replies seeming genuinely surprised. one person with a watermelon emoji (palestine) in their name replied to me something like "omg, i was supporting him and had no idea!" and got over a hundred likes.
