So why do people in the Democrat party want to give the president complete and utter control of the healthcare system?
More correctly, Trump is an example of a National Populist, not a fascist. Read a book about this recently.
cerebus I suggest you get such information from books rather than the Internet. If you did, you'd see that Trump is not a fascist.
Also, I don't see what is wrong with nationalism in any case.

2nd verse
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace, you
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or…

Once again, he is simply restrained by the rule of law and the constitutional separation of powers. I haven't said that America is a fascist state, just that Trump by his nature is fascistic. And he will push that as far as he possibly can, and there's no indication that he will ever be willing to be constrained by anything. When has he ever respected the rule of law, as it relates to limiting his own powers? Answer: never.
Trump Lawyers Argue He Cannot Be Criminally Investigated (Published 2019)
The president’s legal team is trying to block a subpoena seeking his tax returns, claiming that any criminal investigation of Mr. Trump is unconstitutional.www.nytimes.com
So you admit that it is just your opinion, and he has actually done nothing to indicate that he is a fascist. A true fascist would use Executive Orders or anything else at his disposal to gain more power, circumventing the law of the land.
Like I said, it's been 4 years and everything is pretty well as Obama left it, with some things actually being improved upon (like NAFTA).
The Constitutional Republic that is the United States of America is in no worse shape for the 4 years that Trump has been in power.

Donald Trump and the Ku Klux Klan: A History
In this depraved campaign season, it’s unclear whether Trump’s support from white supremacists will have a positive or negative effect on his campaign.
You could instead write something like imagine having no culture, nothing unique about you, no cultural history or traditions, nothing worth holding on to, nothing to identify you in a sea of people.
Globalism has not been a resounding success in any case, but elements of the Left and Right push it for different reasons.
Ironically for the Left, if countries go away, there will be less cultural diversity.

Populist nationalism is a core tenet of fascism.
Fascism is a genus of political ideology whose mythic core in its various permutations is a palingenetic form of populist ultra-nationalism.

And as I kept saying, Trump is fascist-lite. He’s no Mussolini but he’s closer allied to fascist or autocratic leaders than he is to democracies.
History, oh yeah plenty of stuff happened in historyYou made it sound like it is happening today.
You said: "Ok drama llama, the only ones burning down churches in the USA are the KKK"
That is present tense not past tense, so again, do you have proof that the KKK are burning down churches today or are you referring to the past, in which case your comment is meaningless. I have zero love for the KKK, think they're a bunch of inbred hicks but you can't just make stuff up.
3 Black Churches Have Burned in 10 Days in a Single Louisiana Parish (Published 2019)
Officials said that they had found “suspicious elements” in each case and that “there is clearly something happening in this community.”
I love how the Liberals say that things are worse than they have ever been, except, you know, all of the stuff that matters.

Your point?
Again, read some books and educate yourself on the subject. Fascism != national populism.
