As we can see from actual policy, versus the typical liberal PR speak, there's no meaningful difference between Democrats and Republicans. And, in this specific instance, both are fascist. Orwell put it simply:

Republicans are quite happy to kill Arab kids, and brutally segregate Native Americans. Democrats are quite happy to kill Arab kids, and brutally segregate Native Americans, thus we see them prove that liberals are conservatives

The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) passed in a 377 to 48 vote on Wednesday, with 188 Democrats voting in favor and just 41 voting "nay."
"The NDAA is a capitulation to the White House's priorities," Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna told Insider on Thursday, adding that it essentially gave Trump "everything he wanted."
The legislation passed as Trump is on the verge of being impeached, in part over allegations he abused power by freezing military aid to Ukraine as part of a scheme to aid his 2020 reelection campaign.

Definitions of fascism - Wikipedia
Anti-fascist author George Orwell describes fascism in a 1941 essay, "Shopkeepers At War", in economic terms:
Fascism, at any rate the German version, is a form of capitalism that borrows from Socialism just such features as will make it efficient for war purposes... It is a planned system geared to a definite purpose, world-conquest, and not allowing any private interest, either of capitalist or worker, to stand in its way.
Writing for the Tribune in 1944, Orwell stated:[51]
...It is not easy, for instance, to fit Germany and Japan into the same framework, and it is even harder with some of the small states which are describable as Fascist. It is usually assumed, for instance, that Fascism is inherently warlike, that it thrives in an atmosphere of war hysteria and can only solve its economic problems by means of war preparation or foreign conquests. But clearly this is not true of, say, Portugal or the various South American dictatorships. Or again, antisemitism is supposed to be one of the distinguishing marks of Fascism; but some Fascist movements are not antisemitic. Learned controversies, reverberating for years on end in American magazines, have not even been able to determine whether or not Fascism is a form of capitalism. But still, when we apply the term ‘Fascism’ to Germany or Japan or Mussolini's Italy, we know broadly what we mean.
