To be very respectful - I don’t buy the whole fascism argument. What we are seeing is the logical conclusion of giving more and more power to the Federal Government. I believe progressives and Libertarians see the same problem, but ascribe different reasons to why it exists. Socialism - the idea that we give more power to the government - is not the answer. This isn’t just a Trump issue. Similar things have happened under all previous presidents.

All previous Presidents have expanded the federal government to dangerous levels. Let’s not pretend this is just a Trump issue.
