Wow that was a really good work, you did a lot of research and analysis here... Mussolini and trump have different roots though, mussolini was born as socialist but after a kick in the ass the created fascism, Trump was never a dem switching side... Also Trump is milionarie while mussolini wasn't rich... So they probably have different views

It was very interesting. I do like to get into the weeds of things. I appreciate that you read it...not everyone is inclined to read such a piece.
You are apparently familiar with Mussolini, more than most people in the U. S. are. (are you in the U.S.?) Yes, a socialist and a journalist. He was educated. A thinker.
In my opinion, Trump doesn't have a point of view unless it serves his personal interests. He doesn't have an ideology, except one that makes him richer and more powerful. The view, the ideology, comes from those around him, those who support him and were responsible for his rise to power. These people are thinkers and they are committed to an idea of government.
It's interesting that the fascists in Italy arose because there was a fear of socialism and chaos. The people who back Trump likewise are reacting to what they see as a drift in government policy toward ideas they consider dangerous. When they shout Marxism, and socialism, I think they half mean it--although not entirely.
The people who back Trump, many the authors of Project 25, do have an ideology and that is what we see advancing in government today.
Anyway, that's the way I see it :))
I am from Italy 😅 that explains it... I'm not in deep on US politics, but dem doesn't look like socialists, maybe people were afraid of woke-ish things, or just the alternative was worse than Trump for many...
In the west nowadays all politicians are crap, I wouldn't be surprised if a new dictator arises and would get supported, on elections only 50% of people voted because they lost faith, a strong man could attract masses again
