    Because they’re white people, and their backers are rich.

    That’s all you need to know. The far-right is allowed more latitude because, at least for now, they’re useful idiots for the wealthy who can use their votes to further the agenda of tax cuts and deregulation. The problem is of the “riding the tiger” variety: at some point, the rabble will get out of control, and some of the wealthy will have their Fritz Thyssen moment.
