Fuentes isn't meant to be taken serious; he is theatre.
Just like the president, he is not meant to be taken serious, he is theatre too. Fuentes is just a Trump on a bit of steroids - he is even more unapologetic, even more rude and cruel to out-groups. Neither of them can or have much in the way of political ideology outside of self-promotion. They both say so many ridiculous things news cycles can't keep up.
They are mirrors with just a teeny tiny touch of a narcissism of small differences. That is the whole point of the absurdity. To watch one griftoverse look at a steamy mirror, wipe the condensation off, and see pretty much themselves, and be so confused and hate it. The cognitive dissonance required to look at one clown and say "what an idiot" then look at damn near identical clown and be "I will defend and contort to every stupid idea and whim of this person no matter how idiotic". To complain about "how stupid" a layman sounds, while also then defending and contorting to someone that sounds even stupider and deeming them fit for highest office in the land.
As one astute observer notes "imagine being a grown man and talking like this" but not having the wherewithal to see how "grown men" in the highest positions of politics are talking in a much more pathetic manner and being completely rabidly supported, defended, and contorted to.
