The xenophobic and nativist points are a decent match, if one glosses over the lack of anything like the German race in US reality.

My larger point is that fascism in the US, which we are getting dangerously close to, will have its own distinct flavor. It can be a mistake to over-do it with the Nazi analogies, since people who want to deny the proto-fascism in the US right will seize on any inaccuracy in the analogy to deny that we have a problem at all.

Indeed.

Wasn’t it someone who said that “When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag, carrying a cross”?
