Ironically, that sub wasn't banned for supporting a right-wing political candidate but for repeatedly refusing to action content calling for violence against law enforcement.
I was no fan of that subreddit but I popped in from time to time and they were ridiculously stringent about adhering to Reddit's rules.
Also, it wasn't long after that many, many, many subreddits had far worse calls for violence against law enforcement and none of them got banned for it.
