    A politician who surrounds himself with fascists is a fascist, even if he’s not a true believer. That’s why I don’t hesitate to call Trump fascist even though his motivations are clearly all about enriching himself and stroking his ego.

      I’m OK with that definition too. Definitely not better than a fascist, arguably worse.
