You are obviously in denial.  A fascist is a fascist ("I alone can fix it."  Delegitimization of the press, no checks and balances, breaking down of government institutions,etc., etc. etc.)  A racist is a racist (muslim ban, naming Mexicans as rapists and killers, etc).  If you vote for or defend such a person, that makes you a fascist.  I have never been loose with the term.  Woefully, this is the first time in my 67 years that I have called a person from the other party a fascist.  BLOTUS was at one time a Democrat, although his views remain the same.  Our party would never have nominated him.
