My baseline (as an outside observer) is still that they are too stupid and uncoordinated to do a facist take-over. But that a significant possibility even exists that there will be a facist take-over is awful.

(The main ingredient for a facist take-over is control over the military and media and he is not creating many loyalists in either)

He served in the military, though. Idk if he obviously was not loyal to anyone like Trump is, I'd guess not.
