I think you underestimate hardcore MAGA's antisemitism, lol. And slightly overestimate the racism (which is more 'oldschool')
You are not wrong about Jewish mobilization.
There's just different stories told to different people, I think. Evangelical purists get the 'cultural contamination' story to sympathize with (as that's what they want in the US). Old folks get the decades-old broadcast TV version of Israel. MAGA and oldschool Republicans get the radical islam angle, hardcore MAGA gets a kind of altered reality where Trump is actually the anti-interventionists here (as they still hate Israel), he's just working towards that, somehow.
I really think most of the branding isn't 'brown people.' Even though there is a lot of islamophobia in the US, one of MAGA's core tenants is technically non-interventionalism, and most appeals to racism aren't so explicit.
Yeah that’s a smart take. Most things work that way.
(friendly spell check: you mean tenet, not tenant)
I agree this is supposedly one of their tenets but it’s one they seem very idiosyncratic about. They cry non-intervention when they don’t care about something, but seem happy to call for intervention when they do. Maybe this isn’t cognitive dissonance but just having a high bar for intervention. If their bar criteria were clear, it would be easier to say so.
