Cliches of comparing Trump to Hitler are cliches for a reason.
Cliches of comparing Trump to Hitler are cliches for a reason.
As of right now the counts are showing a plurality of voters selected Clinton. What chose Trump is our antiquated election system that weighs rural voters more per capita.
I'm no Clinton supporter--I despise the woman--but if I didn't live in NYC I'd have voted for her. I didn't bother because the system is set up so any extra votes in NY don't matter.
If I were a Trump supporter I'd stay home for similar reasons.
So, that opinion sounds a bit dangerous to me. You'll have to offer a better reason for thinking he's a fascist than relying on clichés.
"Fascists believe that liberal democracy is obsolete, and they regard the complete mobilization of society under a totalitarian one-party state as necessary to prepare a nation for armed conflict and to respond effectively to economic difficulties.[7] Such a state is led by a strong leader—such as a dictator and a martial government composed of the members of the governing fascist party—to forge national unity and maintain a stable and orderly society.[7] Fascism rejects assertions that violence is automatically negative in nature, and views political violence, war, and imperialism as means that can achieve national rejuvenation.[8][9][10][11] Fascists advocate a mixed economy, with the principal goal of achieving autarky through protectionist and interventionist economic policies.[12]"
Being a fascist doesn't mean there will automatically be warrant out for you, or that you have committed some sort of genocide.
Hell in big lines you can compare the arguments that a Hitler used to get in power against that of a Trump and see the same stuff popping up again and again.
Against the elite, the fault of a specific group, talking about deportations, bringing jobs back lost also by foreigners, inward views, derogatory views against foreign countries,... . The list goes on.
We should respect the choice Americans make but when the world is reacting anxious it's about more than simple cliches.
