As I keep saying, there just are not "criminal immigrants" to deport. It's a null category. Law enforcement must create these people - which it can! I wish liberals would learn the lesson that the police create criminals and then punish them.

Not to say those views are wrong but less certain than they seem. His worst ideas should be critiqued in their specificity. E.g., he's thinks superiority isn't natural but should be produced through social hierarchy, so the error of Nietzschean elitism can (and does) exist in pluralist democracies.

The literal wealthiest man in the world donating hundreds of millions of dollars to a presidential campaign and getting rewarded with a government post where he can award his companies with contracts is the most cartoonish possible rendering of what people warned about after Citizens United.

There is a vast literature by hundreds in the field who know his work exhaustively and debate exactly such passages at length. None ignore what he wrote. Genealogy in particular is a rhetorical trap that everyone misreads. Believe what you like, but the majority of experts in the field disagree.
