Opposite? I think he's more fascist that you give him credit for:
Trump claims unlimited power.
He suppress the media.
He seeks immediate and unequivocal revenge for anyone that dissents from him.
An that's just for starters, give him a second term and you will see the full dictator come out.
he claimed the power ("elections have consequences, we have a mandate"..he suppressed the media (kicks fox news out of the whitehouse press room), he sought revenge (IRS-gate...using the dept of justice/fbi to illegally wiretap American citizens, to include the press))
fascism is a leftist ideology...its socialism lite

What are you talking about? WOW. The media was against Trump 1/2 of a year before he even ran for president and it continued all the way to today! They are wildly against him!
He is an egomaniac and I don't like him, but the left got a violent group against him and there was riots, looting and burning in the BILLIONS across the US for 4 1/2 years!!!! Yes, 4 1/2 YEARS!!!! Come on!
He gave power to the states as I stated. You have NOTHING and I mean nothing to prove a word against my logic and remember, I don't even like Trump. I do like DeSantis however.

Definition of fascism
1 often capitalized : a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition
2 : a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control
early instances of army fascism and brutality
Trump was the opposite of a fascist.
He wanted freedom and choices. He wanted less rules and wanted states to have their own rules. Look how he handled Covid as he gave states the power to implement their own laws and we can CLEARLY see if you want freedom to choose how to live with Covid, you want to live in red states. DeSantis believes in freedom of choice with Covid.
You really need to understand meanings of words before you use them. I mean this to be educational, not looking down or judging you. Just live in reality and know the words you use.
Trump is the epitomy of a fascist. He is not as bad as Benito Mussolini, yet, because our system still partly works, and we threw him out in the nick of time. He is a right wing, fascist, lunatic, a corrupt white nationalist, dictator-in-waiting and the enemy of everything America stands for. Fascisim didn't work out so well for Hitler or Mussolini, did it?
If Trump is reseated he will destroy the America you know and replace it with the most authoritarian police state in history. We are already nearly there. My gawd people - he had unmarked secret police, the forerunner to "death squads" kidnapping people off the streets in the summer of '20. He had concentration camps on the border and children in cages. He attempted a COUP to seat himself illegally, and by force when his followers sacked our Capitol, and over 700 people are in or awaiting prison because of it - AND he threw all his supporters under the bus afterward, instead of issuing a blanket pardon.
By Trump shirking his duties and denying covid he forced unprepared states to implement a mish mash of conflicting approaches with no unified front resulting in the GENOCIDE of what is already nearly 800,000 dead americans and probably a million or more before this slows - if - it doesn't mutate into something uncontrollable. The blood of the dead stains his hands and the hands of every covid denier and Trump supporter, and every right wing republican governor in the country.
And those are irrfeutable facts.

This is the second most delusional thing I've read today.
Fascisim is as far extreme right wing as you can go. OK, it's so far left it's full circle right, if you want to say that.
There is no doubt that Trump will completely go completely fascist and obliterate the checks and balances that are enabled by our constitution. Dictator Donny will be out of control with a congress that won't uphold him accountable, a DOJ that is completely loyal to him, and a SCOTUS stacked in his favor.

Trump used to media as a wedge issue to divide America! Yes, declaring the mainstream media to be "fake news" is a dog whistle for all of his member to ignore media - that is a form of media suppression.
Previous dictators Hiter, Stalin. and Mao all declared the media the be "the enemy of the people". Trump did the same.
Sustaining the “ will he/ won’t be” run fantasy for 2.5 more years is a full time job for some folk.
some nuts on each wing. Of course, the Man himself listens to those on his wing.
