The only reason he's NOT a Fascist or Authoritarian is that the US government and the nation as a whole has rules to prevent such things from ever actually happening. If you don't think he's at least TRYING to break those rules, then you haven't been paying attention.

Or you are just seeing things that aren't there because you have bought into the media's lies

I don't need to see the media's lies, I hear what trump says and tweets, and Actual historians/scholars/experts (with no media or political affiliation) are saying that Trump's behaviour and message is unquestionably authoritarian. 

Maybe it's you who should be more picky with your news media sources. 

**Edit** And seriously, what is it with people dismissing anything that doesn't suit their narrative as fake news? You can't really be that willingly ignorant, can you?
