YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

James O'Brien takes a look back in the history books, and questions whether it's time to 'stop being cautious' and call Donald Trump a fascist.

It comes after the White House sacked the National Security Agency chief as part of a purge of top officials, and financial markets continue to suffer following Trump's imposition of tariffs.

The US President was seen to declare "I know what the hell I'm doing!" on Tuesday night, making the comments during a defiant speech at the National Republican Congressional Committee dinner in Washington.

James reflects on Max Hasting's article in The Times, in which he writes that

"Thoughtful Americans use the F-word - fascism - even while we're still cautious about doing so."
