“I think it is very unlikely that a true fascism will ever come to the United States,' said UC Berkeley sociology professor Dylan Riley.
Cries of"fascism" often been uttered against President Donald Trump, but a sociology professor at the University of California, Berkeley argued that the term “fascist” didn't accurately describe Trump’s leadership.
One of the points Riley made during his presentation was that American society and its politics weren't conducive to the widespread adoption of fascist rules and systems. According to the Badger Herald, Riley noted that facism had historically taken root in places with a strong working class population and a weak capitalist population, explaining that the United States’s political structure bore “no similarity” to that.
When it came to Trump’s relationships abroad, the Badger Herald reported that Riley said the fascist label still didn't stick. In contrast to fascist regimes focused on gaining land and “overturning international order,” Trump was more focused on conserving America’s current territory and power. Riley added that the fundamental basis of Trump’s appeal stemmed from the idea that he’s “not a politician,” which the professor noted was entirely unlike the style of classic fascist leaders, such as Nazi Party leader Adolf Hitler and former Italian Prime Minister Benito Mussolini.
