It was easier for the Nazis to marginalize much smaller minority groups.

The United States is very heterogeneous, multiethnic country. The result at any attempt of white minority rule in the United States will be very similar to the breakup of the Yugoslav republic.

Also, not all white people will go along with their fascism. They didn’t in South Africa, and they won’t here.
