Let's go with Umberto Eco's definition since it is well known and it is numbered for easy reference.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ur-Fascism#Overview
The only part that might apply to Democrats is #6.
2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 13, and 14 all apply to the Democrats
How so?
Could just go with the simple one: fascism is capitalism in decay.
Then the republicans are fascists and the democrats are not fascists, because they are in denial about their empire decaying.
