Well to me, calling someone a fascist is just an insult. There are plenty of those bandied around all the time. If you are in politics and your policies are perhaps seen as to to be on the fascist side of anything then that is what you are going to be called. Sticks and stones and all that.
He was overtly racist because he can be because his power is based on shutting opposition down.
Would you say that was liberal? Conservative? Facist? Extremist?
Which one?
Once again, why is it that people have jumped on her use of the name calling term Facist and not his racism?
