There's one extremely vocal supporter in particular who will accuse you of being a Zionist for opposing him (do you want Collins to win? She's worse!!!, despite Platner literally being a racist mass murderer) and will distort theory to support him more generally, and a few others who are less insufferable about it. What I do see more often are people who seem to genuinely hate the guy but still regard him as the lesser of two evils, which is more understandable if still poor analysis (given his open support for imperialism and that he is a democrat the chance he will move the needle on Israel is negative but the chances he will actually expand American imperial efforts elsewhere are very, very good).
