He's very popular among wealthy tech businessmen and adjacent crowds. Good friends with JD Vance and Peter Thiel, for example.

The problem is plenty of reasonable people hear his ideas and think, "nobody can take this seriously" or "this guys is just a troll." However, his direct relationships and influence on the more extreme side of Conservative American politicians is clear. Those that share his views have been rising to the top of political power positions in America for the past decade. I doubt Trump has any idea who this guy is, but those that advise and direct him do.
