The only nominee with a unanimous vote is Marco Rubio, who was appointed in part to be the adult in the room. Trump has some picks that are within the realm of acceptable and there are several picks that are clearly down party lines. Also, the Senate doesn't allow fillabustering for nominee confirmations.

And if the problem with fascism is President Trump, him not being in office would go a long way to preventing fascism. After all, a lot of criticism of Biden recently has been he didn't go full liberal fascist.
