Are you trying to assert that fascism can't be popular? He pretty clearly stated the criteria and how he considers trump's movement in respect to them. You can refute the point¹ but you haven't, merely stating you disagree with them based on the popular vote.

¹ Not to me, I won't read it. I don't care and I've heard enough fascism apologetics on HN in the last few years.

I'm trying to assert that calling Trump a fascist is a left wing opinion, and not one shared by centrists like Obama, given how friendly they were at Carter's funeral.

But you won't see this, as you have chosen self righteousness over knowledge. And no-one is apologising for fascism because he isn't one.
