Yes, the definition seems to vary depending upon who's using it and who they're applying it to. To me, fascism involves strident militarism, anti-capitalist, anti-free market, nationalist governance.

I suppose an 'America First' agenda might be construed as filling the Nationalist criteria but it seems to me that several previous 'regimes' have done a better job of encompassing a higher degree of fascist tendencies that anything we are currently experiencing.

I like to remind myself, regardless of who's currently in charge, that this country is governed as a constitutional republic with leaders democratically elected by the people it serves, and that's what we're seeing now. Sour grapes aside.
