Seeing as how Trump gets compared to Hitler on a near daily basis I don't know how much credence we should put into the concerns of people like that.  Words have a meaning, they are clearly defined.  While I agree that Nationalism is a step up from patriotism it is in no way comparable, as defined, to racial superiority or fascism.

In regard to trump, he wasn't a fan of executive authority and then bam, he thinks he can Chuck out parts of the Constitution. He's not Hitler, but he's definitely an authoritarian. And, historically, they don't care much about your rights.
