Her daughters cousins are around the same age and they all love each other. That is why she is willing to tolerate his bullshit. And I do get that. Its for her child and being a good aunt. And yes this is my first time meeting him. But her parents don't have an issue with him because they are also quite conservative, but they are more open about her daughter being bisexual and dating a transwoman. They have no issue with me or her. But political wise, they are in the same boat together.

I assume it is the family aspect of it for the kids, but not him specifically.
