Why does the definition of fascism keep changing?

Same definition:

a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition

What you see is a development since the Regan area of Radical Republicanism, which has become fascism in the past 4 years. The recent acquittal of Trump is additional proof of that direction of the party.

Trump was literally another Reagan.
