I’m fairly convinced trumpism is a psy op by the rich to delegitimise anti establishment movements and guide them towards fascism to control them. The majority of trumpists have the right idea, decapitate the oppressive capitalfascist system. But they took the wrong turn. I bet that is by design.
In some ways, that’s exactly how fascism grows. Take the failures of liberal democracy, borrow some arguments from the left, and then make a sudden right turn.
The Nazis had arguments that started with “banks are driving you into debt that you can never repay” and then followed up with “and they’re all run by Jews”. They can’t point to any actual solution, because that would undermine their system of control.

The right is notorious for co-opting revolutionary language and using it to push their own narrative.
It is absolutely by design.
