He identifies as a Christian nationalist, and a supporter of authoritarianism, while also associating with the incel subculture. He has been described as a neo-Nazi by various sources. His views have been characterized as white supremacist, misogynistic, homophobic, antisemitic, Islamophobic, and denying the Holocaust. Fuentes was raised in La Grange Park, Illinois, and studied at Lyons Township High School where he embraced far-right conservative views. He began political activism in 2016 and started the episodic live stream America First in 2017. Collaborating with Patrick Casey, a former leader of the neo-Nazi organization Identity Evropa in 2019, Fuentes' followers began to heckle Charlie Kirk and his organization Turning Point USA's Culture War Tour, including a speaking event for Donald Trump Jr. This is referred to as the Groyper War. In 2020, seeking to establish a white supremacist conference to rival the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), Fuentes began holding the annual America First Political Action Conference (AFPAC). In November 2022, Fuentes and the American rapper Kanye West had a private dinner with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago. The meeting was broadly condemned by American political commentators, with The New York Times describing it as "what may be the most discomfiting moment in U.S. history in a half-century or more" for American Jews. In January 2024, Fuentes said he was a "Trump cultist". Fuentes became more critical of Donald Trump that year, partly due to his immigration, foreign affairs, and race policies. In August 2024, Nick Fuentes launched "Groyper War 2", a "digital war" against Trump's presidential campaign involving memes, trolls, and protests to push for more extreme right-wing positions, unsuccessful demands to fire advisors Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles, and withholding votes, crediting his efforts for Trump's rehiring of Corey Lewandowski while drawing concerns over potential election interference blueprints due to lax platform enforcement. In 2025, Fuentes said Trump was a "scam artist" due to his comments about the Epstein files. Fuentes has been involved in a number of controversial events. Fuentes attended the 2017 white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, and was also an attendee and speaker at events preceding the January 6 United States Capitol attack. Fuentes faced widespread deplatforming from major social media, streaming, and financial services between 2020 and 2023, primarily for violating hate speech policies and inciting violence. In 2023, Fuentes was criticized for allegedly covering for a friend's sexual misconduct with underage boys, reportedly pressuring an accuser to apologize. In November 2024, after his home was doxed, he was arrested for battery for pepper-spraying and pushing an activist, taking her phone. In December 2024, Fuentes survived an apparent assassination attempt at his home by a 24-year-old, who was killed by police after a shootout.
