I don't think he's a fascist. I think he seeks popularity (amongst those already on his coat tails) but is ultimately self-serving under the guise of populism. I think he is deluded and unintelligent. I think he would LOVE to be totalitarian if he could find a way to get away with it. I think he is probably dangerous and a narcissist. I don't think he expected or particularly wanted to win the presidency and now has very little idea what he's supposed to be doing, and is essentially winging it.
On a personal level I find him and his mannerisms intensely irritating. I find him to be a terrible, unconvincing and disingenuous public speaker. He is over-sensitive and defensive.
I could go on all day really but no... Fascism isn't really the issue.
