Whell mainly values feeling superior and not inferior, vis a vis liberals who think they are so smart. And he is so needy on that value axis that it totally drowns out all other values. In argument he is an utter amoral troll therefore.
He may or may not know that Trump is truly a lying authoritarian pig, and the greatest internal danger this democracy has ever faced. I can't tell. Because if he knows it, he'll never admit it. That would sabotage his personal fight, which is all that actually matters to him.

I think whell is a Russian bot, or at least he sounds like one.
