==Political views==
Nick Fuentes has described himself as a Catholic reactionary, and Christian futurist. Fuentes is against what he describes as "the American Regime", which includes the federal government, the federal reserve, the mainstream media, and corporate giants. Fuentes is critical of American foreign policy, believing that the issue to American's is not Iran or China or Russia, it is "the American Regime". Fuentes is against current conflicts in the Middle East, although he has spoken positively about imperialist expeditions during the Age of Discovery.
Socially, Nick is a devout Catholic, and states that America is a Christian nation. Nick is anti-LGBT, calling it a "deviancy", and has criticized Republicans on being too progressive on LGBT rights. Fuentes is also anti-Abortion and anti-Drugs. Nick opposes the Covid-19 vaccine, and has held an anti-vax rally in New York City, wearing a bulletproof vest. He has praised world leaders such as Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin and the Taliban for their socially conservative and pro-nationalist policies enacted, although praise of the latter two resulted in controversies, as they were responses to the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. His anti-Israel comments resulted in a former friend repeatedly asking RSBN to fire him in 2017.
Nick firstly supported Ted Cruz in 2016, before switching his support to Trump. He also called Trump a 'borderline racist' in 2015. Despite being a Trump supporter, he has criticized Trump on many issues such as Trump's social policies and his political endorsements of political candidates after leaving office. Fuentes has been extremely critical of the Republican Party, criticizing them regarding issues such as foreign policy, immigration, and social policy. He mocked Senator John McCain and former U.S. President George H.W. Bush in 2018 after they passed away, due to their pro-war stance. He called Trump's 2024 announcement trash and joined the Ye24 campaign as his communications director. He later withdrew his support for Ye due to him having a fashion event where a cross was put on the buttocks of his wife, which he found distasteful and blasphemous. He later said that he did not talk to Ye since that event occurred in May. 
Nick opposes the Israeli lobby, and conferences such as AIPAC, stating that they have too much power and influence over elected officials. Nick also opposes Judaism, and stated that denying the divinity of Jesus Christ is worse than denying the Holocaust. Nick is critical of conservative organizations who are Zionist, such as Breitbart, The Daily Wire, Prager U and Turning Point USA, as well as individuals such as Charlie Kirk and Ben Shapiro.
Fuentes believes immigration should be suspended indefinitely, and that illegal immigrants should be deported. Fuentes states that immigration, both legal and illegal, will cause the demographic and cultural identity of America to change due to this, and that this multicultural change will cause ethnic conflict between groups. Fuentes also states that there is an anti-White agenda committed by the "American Regime", and that this agenda must be stopped. Fuentes is anti-BLM, calling the group "racial narcissists", and has expressed his displeasure about criminal activity in African-American areas.
Nick expresses his displeasure towards women who sleep around in right-wing movements, and famously said 'No E-Girls. Never!', in 2019.
