Well, that's close to the point I was making that jj was weakly contesting. Look up palingenetic ultranationalism, then tell me how that differs from Trumpism, especially considering their recent insurrection against the United States.

In every way, the democratic movement is closer to fascist Germany except one. They are globalists. They have merged corporate and political control and are working to make this is a one party state. If they were nationalists instead of globalists, you have NAZI Germany. So, hide behind that technicality if you want. Trump didn't do a single thing that was fascist except promote nationalism, which is not fascist by any means.
