Yes he is. Attracted to the racist sexist Russian Military culture.
And sure Trump is mostly just a narcissist that doesn't have any real ideological thinking. Mostly he's just going along with whatever will make his supporters adore him. But he's all about the racism and sexism, and these are used in fascist propaganda. Given Trump actually is these things, this propaganda is all the more effective. "He tells it like it is!"
But even if Trump himself is just a racist misogynistic asshole that's not intentionally creating a fascist movement, his personality traits have created a fascist movement whether Trump himself intended that to happen or not.
