Well you got the Facsist part right, but left out the Neo-Nazis... You can't (logically) approvingly paraphrase 2 avowed Fascists, and then talk about "rooting-out Fascism"
And I'll give you my receipts on left vs right terrorism, and you're welcome to match me...

The stats for 2021 were lower because there weren't any mass casualty events, which is an outlier...From the Anti-Defamation League website on 2021 numbers...
- Most of the murders (26 of 29) were committed by right-wing extremists, which is usually the case. However, two killings were committed by Black nationalists and one by an Islamist extremist—the latter being the first such killing since 2018.
- Most of the 2021 murders were committed by people associated with longstanding extremist movements, such as white supremacy and the sovereign citizen movement. However, 2021 continued the trend of recent years of seeing some murders from newer types of extremism, including QAnon adherents, people associated with the toxic masculinity subculture of the “manosphere” and anti-vaccination extremists.

I'll do more research if need be, but at the very least you'd have to say Trump apparently doesn't read...Since at no point in his rambling did he address right wing violence, aside from misconstruing the definitions and distinction between a Marxist and a Fascist. I won't give him credit for pointing out the right wing aspect by including Fascists. I think he is so stupid he doesn't realize that Fascists are right wing... ie Mussolini,Hitler,Franco, Peron etc...
