Fascism in the US is just going to be more of the same but on steroids. The police will just have even more impunity and wider scope. There'll be even more deregulation. There'll be even more money poured into prisons and police, even more use of prisoners by corporations as workers. More vulnerable people will die of neglect or abuse. It's not going to be some huge rupture, just a slow capitulation and no legal recourse at all for the oppressed. The relatively privileged will get used to this, not much will change, they may even get richer and they'll be even more compliant to fit in. This is why people on the lower social rungs see the two parties as being the same. It's going to be more terrible for the poor and for minorities. Fascism usually isn't a rupture of the normal, it's a slow process of normalization that requires complicity and submission.
