> Trump is not authoritarian

The better discussion is:

1. Does he aspire to be authoritarian or does he prefer to do work with congress, scotus, and independent agencies?

2. Has he expanded presidential power, formally or informally?

It is not a better discussion in context, because the topic says "America has signs of fascism", not "Trump wants more power". The later topic is not very intellectually engaging.
Constitutional law is pretty engaging actually. You are welcome to feel otherwise.
