If she votes at all, it may be to the candidate of whomever of her boyfriend, her friends, her grandmother speaks to her last. Alternatively, the fact that she watched pro Trump videos specifically on immigration, suggest she is ok with the glaring white nationalism and has internalized it. This even though she has relatives and friends who seem to reject this. ( If she spoke of videos that spoke of the utopia of the previous Trump years, it would be less damning.)
