It was the worlds problem that he was a Trumpish psychopath.
So, if Hitler had been more 'ept', ALL the Jews in Europe would have been incinerated?

Well no.
If his main aim was increasing the size of the father land he needed as many soldiers as he could get.
As it happened he decided to kill a lot of potential soldiers.
A lot of jews fought in the first world war for Germany and a lot would have shared his views on nationalism but just be against the killing jews part.

It's also a fact that Hitler didn't get a majority of the votes in the election that eventually made him Chancellor. The Nazis got the largest single number of seats in the Reichstag, but not a majority. Attempts at building a coalition of smaller parties failed. Von Papen then assured Hindenburg that he could "handle the little Bohemian corporal" and Hitler was called to form a government.
He then demanded that Germany build a wall along the Polish border and make the Poles pay for it.

Quote:When taught about how Hitler won over everyone around him, there was one major consensus: no one saw him as evil.
That's a relief. Half the country hates Trump's guts: There's no way he's like hitler.

It's less, and in that he's making history.
Quote:Only 45% of Americans approve of Trump's job performance over the first three days of his presidency, according to a Gallup survey released Monday. It's the first time a president has received an initial approval rating under 50% in the history of the poll, which dates back to Dwight Eisenhower's first term in 1953.

Worse the Hitler? Take a seat.
I feel people who make absurd statements like this have no idea what Hitler was about. Hitler just didn't hate Jews and others he considered subhuman such as slavs and gypsies, he started what was essentially an apocalyptic race war in order to embark on a campaign of actual extermination and actual enslavement to wipe from the face of the Earth these people and replace them with his own "aryan" race. Call me when Trump initiates his own Operation Barbarossa in the Middle-East.

If there hasn't been a war by the end of the year I'll be surprised.

He's doing fine so far. Hitler needed several years before banning certain demographics. Trump, with his total ban on immigration from certain countries, managed in week one. So, let's wait for his version of the Nuremberg legislations.

That's a little harsh on the Trumpeter. When has America NOT been at war with someone over something?
It's the American way... Bombs have use by dates.
