Orient the model the way you want to look at it in the drawing, then insert
your drawing view using the "Current" option. View will come in matching
the current view in the model.

I need to edit a model done by a former employee and he drew it on a weird
angle for some reason so i can't put it on an idw on the proper angle
is there a way to change the angle of how it displays on idws? and i mean by
30 degrees, i know it does 90s already
you can also rotate the base view by right clicking it and selecting
rotate before you create any dependent views from it.
you can also change the UCS of the model, but I always have trouble with
that. (it will blow up any poorly defined geometry)

You could redefine the base sketch to an origin plane and hope the model doesn't blow itself to smithereens. Better workflow to put your first sketch on an origin plane anyway.

I always orient my drawings normally, but this was drawn by someone else (i keep finding more and more of his mistakes, he should have been fired long before he was)
i did know how to rotate drawings (cw ccw) but i wanted to rotate a shaft toward myself to detail a keyway, but i realize that i was using the wrong base view to start with, i got it figured out, thanks
