If rightoids don't unambiguously disown actual white supremacists and fascists, this will happen here too.
The American right has an easier time disowning the insane weirdos then the "progressive" movement does, but there are still a lot of ordinary boring conservatives who are convinced that actual white supremacists are just conservatives who are getting smeared by the boy who cried nazi. That could easily be the undoing of the right. The far left is far more agreeable to the masses then the far right.
How would they accomplish this? The maintenance of white supremacism is literally the reason right-wing politics in the US exists - you're asking them to stop being reactionaries and become... what? Socialists? Anarchists?
