What?
Not everything requires a massive discussion. Trump isn't Hitler. Saying "Trump is Hitler or <insert your favorite despot here>" is categorically stupid. Period, full stop.
As for your post, your point about "gradually breaking down the guardrails" is completely eviscerated by "he President just deciding to use a lot of the powers that Congress explicitly gave to the Executive".
Because even the literal fascist governments of WWII didn't start off there, either.
Sigh. History is so being butchered on this board. Hitler started off with a failed revolution, did time in prison, wrote a manifesto detailing exactly what he wanted to do, formed a street army, and basically bullied his way into power.
