Also, Trump has been bankrupt 8 (?) times, screwing numerous people out of their money. It shouldn't be so easy to file for bankruptcy. People like Trump abuse the option.

No argument from me here, 100% agree

Good points, but that's not fascism.

No, but I will tell you what is. Undermining free speech on a technicality by having the FBI have all the media companies censor true information about hunter biden's laptop when they can't legally do it themselves, and commit election interference by doing it during a presidential campaign, and then appointing a guy to the intelligence board who signed a document saying the laptop story was Russian disinformation, and also trying to start a ministry of truth. That all sounds a lot like somethiing that would happen in George Orwell's 1984
