Wow, what a stretch. While you admit, over and over, across several key issues, that Hitler and tRump had similarities in their rhetoric, you claim that tRump is not a fascist because Hitler was successful and tRump failed.

That is preposterous. The orange beast failed because of protections we have in the constitution and our laws and customs, which were non-existent or weak in Germany. But many of these did fail, and are still under attack, and are teetering on the brink now. tRump is not done.

It is interesting, ironic actually, that you tout one of the major differences being that Hitler outlawed elections. This is essentially what tRump and his Repulicant toadies have been doing the last 7 months, and are still working on. It is not over yet.

No, you are dead wrong. tRump may be a failed fascist so far, but he is still a fascist, beyond doubt.
