Ellison posted a picture with "Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook" and asserted that the book would "strike fear in the heart" of President Donald Trump

The book, written by Dartmouth professor Mark Bray, argues that "militant anti-fascism
...a political system developed in Italy, symbolized by the Roman
fasces-- thin reeds, each flimsy in itself but unbreakable when bound into a bundle. Its distinguishing philosophical feature is the Corporate State. The word is nowadays thrown around by all sorts of people who have no idea what they're talking about...
is a reasonable, historically informed response to the fascist
...anybody not a leftist...threat that persisted after 1945 and that has become especially menacing in recent years."
According to Bray, it is acceptable to use violence against "fascism" because what he considers to be fascist ideas ‐ like those shared by right-wing provocateur Milo Yiannopolous ‐ aren’t worthy of debate.
Bray also states that anti-fascists must be prepared to "physically confront the far right when necessary."
During an MSNBC interview in August, Bray even argued that Antifa needs to preemptively strike against white nationalists because "fascism cannot be defended by speech."
