Native Americans, beyond disease, were mostly wiped out by their own slave trade as slaves were the only things they had which could be traded for guns. Whites had port facilities and ocean going ships, that was their biggest influence. The US was a net exporter of slaves until the oceanic slave trade was shut down in 1813.

Which is why the triangular trade is usually shown with slaves mostly going to the Caribbean and the US not even being part of it, there and the Arab world are where the overwhelming majority of black slaves went (to die, the comparatively small amount that went to the US, former British possessions, and Brazil are just the ones that survived because slaves were far more likely to survive there)
