OF COURSE Trump is a fascist

[Politruk]

Fascism is based on Palingenetic ultranationalistic populism.

Palingenetic means rebirth or regeneration, more specifically a cleansing such. Once the unwanted elements are washed away, eliminated, or destroyed the remaining old core will bring about a new dawn and reach their proper place.

Ultranationalistic means that the nation, its traditions, and the corresponding sense of unity is paramount. This means that it isn't really possible to import fascism to one country from another—each nation must have its own, and it will express itself in different ways.

Populism means appeal to the masses, usually by appeals to feelings, "common sense", revanchism, or disenfranchisement, and the assertion that the speaker is the true representative of the masses. Often the established elites are the target for this. However, populism in this regard carries a highly elitist core, since the masses are not expected to themselves influence the (self-appointed) leader; they are to follow.

That shoe fits the Trump movement.

It also fits the Reagan Revolution, if anyone can remember back that far.

There is no ideological positions of MAGA outside of loyalty to the man.

Without loyalty, he fucks you over, regardless of your position

Leave the rapist's diaper out of this. It's bad enough already.

Trump has a worse cult of personality than any American pol since Reagan, and you know it.

Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler's collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed ... Hitler's speeches, from his earliest days up through the Phony War of 1939, reveal his extraordinary ability as a master propagandist​

From 2016:
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/aug/07/american-nazi-party-leader-trump-opportunity

The leader of the American Nazi Party has said the election of Donald Trump as president would present “a real opportunity for people like white nationalists” to start “acting intelligently”, with the aim of building a mainstream political presence similar to that of the Congressional Black Caucus.

When the leader of the American Nazi Party thinks that Trump is a Nazi, it's a clue.

Only a fascist would keep on having campaign rallies after taking office.

You are full of crap.

You are full of crap.

If you want to analyze 45's positions and tell me which ideological perspective he adheres to, I'm open to the discussion. He's not a conservative. He's not a liberal.

The only position I've seen that is consistent is loyalty.

Your cult status may blind you to that.

Bigotry. Trump is a 21st-Century version of Frank Rizzo or Louise Day Hicks. That's pretty consistent.

 

[Politruk]

Now Trump has a chance to prove he is not a fascist.

But that would require acting a lot differently than he did in his first term.

Is anyone optimistic?

So far it's like his first term but more so. Fascist all the way.

 

[Bray123]

During his first term he made the mistake of appointing people who had some degree of competence in their roles (only the best/not quite the worst).

This time he's only appointed ass-kissers who will do anything so long as he keeps them in that position. There is no integrity beyond their own wiki entry.

Still consistent.
