Keep'To keep the article strictly neutral and factual, I chose to limit the references to those about the phenomenon of Trump's popularity with such groups, which seems to be an objective and encylopedic phenomena, and thus should be kept, since the increase of popularity of these groups, as claimed in these articles, seems to be a significant (and troubling) historical phenomena our readers may wish to know of. I could have also listed a number of other references where Trump's policy proposals have been criticized as fascist, but I left these out in order to not push a POV and just present the facts to our readers, who deserve them. I am not opposed to a rename if anyone has a good suggestion, and I am happy to have others make edits to the article if they see ways to improve it. Cheers.

This article has room to grow! Imagine if Trump is somehow elected. Or even gets nominated by his party. There will be much more Fascism related news coming on Trump, and we wouldn't want to take away too much space from reports on his reality television endeavors from his main page. Besides, the revival of mainstream fascism in 2015, 70 years after we thought we had killed it, now back as an unashamed political platform in the persons of Trump and Le Pen in France, is an encylopedic and notable phenomenon. I provided lots of hard evidence here. Closing our eyes doesn't make it go away. Maybe a section connecting Trump to the unseemly revival of Fascists globally, like Le Pen, would be in order.

"Comment" I've added even more references and moved the reports of Trump's Hitler book, which he is claimed by his ex-wife to keep in his bedside cabinet to its own section. I've also added the NYTimes story from September about Trump's father having been a Klansmen, along with Trump's denial to this collaboration.

- DELETE – This wiki entry is rife with political hubris, innuendo and pot-calling-kettle-black. While it might be agreed that Trump is a personification of Mussolini, there is a strong argument that Clinton is a subversive personification of Hitler due to her outright lying to the public on Bengazi, private email server scandal, Clinton foundation conflicts of interest, etc., all verifiable, if even uncomfortable, and side-stepped facts by the Clinton political machine. To put a singular political figure in the same vein as Fascism completely misses the point that Fascism is first and foremost a 'corporatist/statist' aligned form of government. Corporate welfare, which is rampant in American economic policy, is a defining principle of Fascism. The SCOTUS Citizens United Ruling simply ensconced the corporatists/statist basis of Fascism into American further and deeper into politics. Has it been lost on the argument that Clinton is running her campaign, as far as the dollars total garnered, on the very corporatist campaign contributions that are part of the corporatist/statist agenda America is sliding deeper into with each succeeding incoming president, regardless of political affiliation? Trump or Clinton being Fascist in their own rights are at their core really Straw Man arguments in the final analysis, and inflammatory and hubris ones at that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LoR.

Corporate welfare, which is rampant in American economic policy, is a defining principle of Fascism. The SCOTUS Citizens United Ruling simply ensconced the corporatists/statist basis of Fascism into American further and deeper into politics. Has it been lost on the argument that Clinton is running her campaign, as far as the dollars total garnered, on the very corporatist campaign contributions that are part of the corporatist/statist agenda America is sliding deeper into with each succeeding incoming president, regardless of political affiliation? Trump or Clinton being Fascist in their own rights are at their core really Straw Man arguments in the final analysis, and inflammatory and hubris ones at that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LoR.
