Realistically I don’t think the majority of conservatives or even maga conservatives are actually nazis or even believe in the pillars that establish fascism. I’m sure there are some, but I bet it’s less than 5% of that base.

They did the same thing for a different army unit I was in when they were deployed during Katrina.
