At which point, what? Some of the politicians who *are* good at this, and sociopathic enough to view it cold-bloodedly, will surely be trying to figure out how to use it to their advantage. They won't *call* themselves fascists, of course, but the smart ones are going to recognize that there are a lot of people out there who are craving what amounts to a fascist / Mode 2 leadership, and will be trying to position themselves for that.
What is to stop a smart politician from doing this even if Trump isn't elected? Just because Trump is sloppy, doesn't mean that others can't learn from it and do it "right".
