Ill def check it out! Im certainly still open to different takes on this. I do think its important to be as precise as we can be with our terms, especially when talking about fascism and what it means!

I think your analysis of Trump re: fascism is really helpful Breht. My own take was that Trump was a non fascist right wing authoritarian neoliberal that was at the head of a coalition of far right forces which included a consciously fascist vanguard. There was a great roundtable discussing this on The Katie Halper Show that you should check out if you haven't already.
