No, we aren't heading there either.I took a look at the definition of fascism in the American Heritage Dictionary, 5th definition:
**
A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, a capitalist economy subject to stringent governmental controls, violent suppression of the opposition, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.

The U.S. isn't quite there yet, as Trump is not yet a dictator, but I can see it heading there eventually. I think it's important to know how this happened though. Leftist Chris Hedges has a good article on that:

From what I've seen, both the democrats and the republicans have become pretty bad recently. I wouldn't have voted for either Kamala or Trump if i were American. I think Trump is better when it comes to making peace with Russia and the democrats were better when it came to the rights of non nationals, but I suspect better is going to have to come soon if the U.S. is going to avoid tyranny.
But I would love for you to explain why you think we are? It should be fun to watch.
