No, President Trump is not an American version of the 1920s-1930s British fascist Oswald Mosley.

I make this point having recently watched the fifth season of Netflix’s Peaky Blinders. That season of the British drama focuses on Mosley’s British Union of Fascists political movement. It offers some not-so-subtle efforts to parallel Trump and Mosley. This fits with a broader cultural trend of presenting Trump as a fascist-in-waiting.
