When DEMS first started calling Trump Hitler in DEM media many months ago, we just laughed at the seeming silliness of the vitriol. With a handful of months after the second Trumpist regime took over the Oval and a spate of bizarre betrayals, one has to revisit the idea.

And upon revisitation, one gets a chilling feeling as you notice the parallels of how both Hitler and Trump rose through political layers to the top chair. Read the Hitler story below and note how similar his rise is to Trump's 2.0

Hitler's path to becoming Chancellor of Germany in January 1933 was a result of a combination of political maneuvering, capitalizing on popular discontent, and leveraging the vulnerabilities of the Weimar Republic.
Here's a breakdown of the key factors involved:
1. Exploiting Political and Economic Instability:
Weaknesses of the Weimar Republic: The Weimar Republic, Germany's first democratic government, struggled with political instability and economic hardship from its inception. The proportional representation electoral system often resulted in fragmented parliaments and unstable coalition governments.
The Treaty of Versailles: The harsh terms of the Treaty of Versailles, imposed on Germany after WWI, fueled resentment and instability. This included significant reparations payments and territorial losses, which the Nazi Party vehemently opposed.
The Great Depression: The worldwide economic crisis that began in 1929 severely impacted Germany, leading to mass unemployment and economic hardship. The inability of the Weimar government to effectively address these issues eroded public trust in democracy and fueled support for extremist parties like the Nazis.
2. Nazi Party's Rise and Hitler's Appeal:
Increased Electoral Support: The Nazi Party, initially a small and radical group, gained significant electoral support in the early 1930s by exploiting the economic and political crises. They appealed to various segments of society, including the unemployed, young people, and the middle class, by promising a strong and unified Germany, economic recovery, and a return to national pride.
Effective Propaganda: The Nazi Party utilized powerful and carefully crafted propaganda, led by Joseph Goebbels, to promote Hitler as a strong leader capable of solving Germany's problems. They scapegoated Jews and Communists for the nation's struggles and fostered a sense of national unity.
Hitler's Charisma and Oratory: Hitler's powerful and captivating speaking style resonated with many Germans and allowed him to effectively channel popular discontent into support for the Nazi Party.
3. Backroom Deals and Conservative Elite Support:
Political Maneuvering: Despite not having a clear majority in the Reichstag, the Nazi Party's significant electoral gains made it a powerful political force that couldn't be easily ignored. Hitler demanded to be appointed Chancellor in any government his party participated in.
Conservative Elite's Miscalculation: Conservative politicians and influential figures, including former Chancellor Franz von Papen, believed they could control Hitler's more extreme tendencies if they brought him into a coalition government. They saw Hitler as a way to achieve their own political goals, such as combating communism and restoring authoritarian rule.
President Hindenburg's Reluctance and Eventual Appointment: President Paul von Hindenburg initially resisted appointing Hitler as Chancellor due to his dislike of the Nazi Party's extremist views. However, under pressure from his advisors and faced with political stalemate, Hindenburg reluctantly appointed Hitler as Chancellor in a coalition government on January 30, 1933.
In essence, Hitler's rise to power wasn't a forceful takeover but rather a strategic exploitation of the existing political system, coupled with growing popular support driven by economic hardship and nationalist sentiment. The decision by conservative elites and President Hindenburg to appoint Hitler, believing they could control him, ultimately proved to be a fatal miscalculation.
