For the record, once more, I would not call Trump a fascist, though many of his followers - especially Stephen Miller - fit the bill. Given Trump's cognitive decline and lack of policy detail, his lack of true fascist beliefs doesn't matter. He's made them the decision makers.
No, I think the better term to refer to Trump is "tyrant." In the Greek world, a tyrant was one who ruled outside the law. That fits him perfectly.
What's more, it was what Americans called King George 250 years ago. We should harness that American history for our opposition to the Man Who Would Be King.
