Far right propagandists don’t
need to attain power. The result is the same if they can successfully seed their ideologies in the existing body politic.

The “alt-right” was a far-right
marketing exercise. It was a success. Their extremism was amplified by the media & presented as legitimate & intellectual.

The Chinese Exclusion Act and the Geary Act are the origins of the exclusionary concept of "illegal immigration" (based on ethnicity/race) in U.S. history. The former was heavily influenced by an Irish immigrant and the latter was authored by a second-generation Irish American.
In 1850 there were slaveowners with the surname “Reilly” in Mississippi, Washington D.C., Georgia, North Carolina, Kentucky, Louisiana, South Carolina and Virginia.
While Bill O'Reilly's ancestors became naturalised U.S. citizens without restriction, the Supreme Court Dred Scott ruling of 1857 declared that African Americans, whether free or enslaved, were not and could never be citizens of the United States.

United States Supreme Court: "A free negro of the African race, whose ancestors were brought to this country and sold as slaves, is not a "citizen" within the meaning of the Constitution of the United States." (1857)
U.S. Supreme Court: “If the applicant is a white person within the meaning of this section he is entitled to naturalization; otherwise not.” (1923)
“[We do not] suggest the slightest question of racial superiority or inferiority. What we suggest is merely racial difference, and it is of such character and extent that the great body of our people instinctively recognize it and reject the thought of assimilation.”
