Fascinating perspective -- given that I completely disagree. Trump is not right wing by any historic metric. He shouts a lot. That's the only thing he has in common with "fascist dictators". His policies are not conservative. Dude spent like it was going out of style.
At the risk of repeating myself, please understand that the world is not so simple as left vs. right. "Conservativism" is irrelevant as an ideology, since it's now just a hollowed-out husk that has been adopted by authoritarian extremists in an attempt to deflect from criticisms of their authoritarian nature. And Trump is an authoritarian to the core.
