I think you are right, in part; though I am one who sees fascist echoes in Mr. Trump. And, yes, I could give you more than you want on any of these topics, which is probably why I see the similarities to those of notoriety.
#1. Mr. Trump is an opportunist, whose program is fluid, shifting to stoke the fires of an angry populace. *if one reads the early writings of dictators, it’s not so much “true believer” but “opportunism” that gets the job done for them. They use what works. It’s about Power, not Dogma.
#2. The use of nationalist sentiment or fear of a failing national economy to assume power.
#3. #1 & # 2 are Accompanied by scapegoating of minorities or religious/ethnic groups, complete with an idea to specially identify or deport.
#4. He is manipulative. What else is it when a person says they are prolife then defines it with a basic pro CHOICE definition? Manipulation of persons and facts. Liar.
