The main difference, as I understand, is that national socialism is inherently racist and puts the (Aryan) race on top of the ideology, everything else must submit to the benefit of the (Aryan) race, whereas fascism puts the benefit of the state on top.
Trump, as far as I can judge from beyond the pond, is still claiming to put the state, or the United States of America, first, like a fascist would do. His hate speech against immigrants still serves the narrative of them being bad for the US, not of them being disadvantageous towards the benefit of the Aryan race.
He’s not a Nazi; he’s a fascist. Nazi refers to a specific political party. Fascist is more general.

He wants to be Hitler, so that’s close enough for me.
Oh, I’m not saying he’s any better than a Nazi. Just being pedantic.
The distinction between a “real” Nazi and a Hitler fanboy is too fine to matter.
If he walks like a nazi, talks like a nazi and acts like a nazi. He’s a fucking nazi.
