    To be fair nobody thought he would have fascist policies in 2016. Just that he was dumb and incompetent.

      A lot of folks thought he would push fascist policies, though? He was notable for his nativist and protectionist rhetoric on the campaign trail. The audacity of it all is what got him all that free print and airtime.

      People were calling them Nazi though. Far before he was even elected. Pride saw the writing in the walls. Now though, now it’s undeniable. He’s a Nazi pushing fascism and authoritarianism.
