I think him being outed as a full, genuine Nazi galvanized his existing support-base but pretty much destroyed any centrist or middle-ground base that he had, which was confusing to me considering how Hitlerian a lot of Americans can be. Part of his far-right base didn’t like that he did work with Israel. I don’t really see the “edgy centrist” types sharing his comics anymore and he made like 5 comics coping about it.
If it didn’t damage his base; it definitely fucked with him.
As far as I understand, a lot of American “centrists” want “civil” Nazis. They love nazis, as long as those nazis don’t openly do nazi things and keep their naziism behind closed doors.

Makes a lot of sense.
