Trump supporters are generally fascist because they support the authoritarian expansion of the executive office, subscribe to nationalism to the point where you think they're compensating for something, and demonize opposing views. This obviously goes for many other Americans, but it stands out with Trump supporters because of their immigration stances being driven by white paranoia over losing majority in America.

The claim that overusing a word takes away its meaning is bull****. If you're genuinely losing your understanding of fascism because someone is using the term in a way that you don't agree with, then that's on you.
