A retard wouldn't vote for Trump.

That's because they are already committed towards voting for Clinton.
You do realize that YOU are one of the reasons why "Don't be a retard; vote for Trump" is so effective.

Oh look the "Democratic Socialist" with "Nationalistic" policies is calling someone a "Fascist."
I guess it does take one to spot one.

The Italian term fascismo derives from fascio meaning a bundle of rods, ultimately from the Latin word fasces. This was the name given to political organizations in Italy known as fasci, groups similar to guilds or syndicates and at first applied mainly to organisations on the political Left. In Milan in 1919, Mussolini founded the Fasci Italiani di Combattimento, which, in 1921, became the Partito Nazionale Fascista (National Fascist Party). The Fascists came to associate the term with the ancient Roman fasces or fascio littorio—a bundle of rods tied around an axe,[16] an ancient Roman symbol of the authority of the civic magistrate carried by his lictors, which could be used for corporal and capital punishment at his command.
One common definition of the term focuses on three concepts: the fascist negations of anti-liberalism, anti-communism and anti-conservatism; nationalist authoritarian goals of creating a regulated economic structure to transform social relations within a modern, self-determined culture; and a political aesthetic of romantic symbolism, mass mobilization, a positive view of violence, and promotion of masculinity, youth and charismatic leadership.
Fascism presented itself as a viable alternative to the two other major existing economic systems – liberal capitalism and Marxist socialism.
Fascist governments advocated resolution of domestic class conflict within a nation in order to secure national solidarity.
While fascism denounced the mainstream internationalist and Marxist socialisms, it claimed to economically represent a type of nationalist productivist socialism that while condemning parasitical capitalism, was willing to accommodate productivist capitalism within it.
Whereas Marxism condemned capitalism as a system of exploitative property relations, fascism saw the nature of the control of credit and money in the contemporary capitalist system as abusive.
Fascist economics supported a state-controlled economy that accepted a mix of private and public ownership over the means of production. Economic planning was applied to both the public and private sector, and the prosperity of private enterprise depended on its acceptance of synchronizing itself with the economic goals of the state. Fascist economic ideology supported the profit motive, but emphasized that industries must uphold the national interest as superior to private profit.
Fascists promoted social welfare to ameliorate economic conditions affecting their nation or race as a whole, but they did not support social welfare for egalitarian reasons. Fascists criticized egalitarianism as preserving the weak. They instead promoted social Darwinist views.
Fascism emphasizes direct action, including supporting the legitimacy of political violence, as a core part of its politics.
Fascism emphasizes youth both in a physical sense of age and in a spiritual sense as related to virility and commitment to action.

Now if you were to say 'the People's Republic of China is the new USA', we might have a sentence worth putting in print.
