i don't think he legitimately wants to be a fascist. i don't think he has a core ideology that gives them the hallmarks of a traditional fascist. i think he is definitely authoritarian adjacent. he doesn't have any real concern for rules, morals, ethics, or guidelines and would rather strongarm people into doing what he wants.i think that's probably the biggest reason why people like him in the first place. he's an asshole who makes people angry and is entertaining, and they want him to go kill the deep state or whatever their grievance is. he of course isn't going to do any of that, as you can see by his neocon picks. trump is just the quintessential american burrowed down to its id.
