    A key difference is that Hitler didn’t cause the hyperinflation.

    I am irrationally hopeful that even most dumbasses who voted for him will realize that his policies fucked them, and can’t save them

      I think my comment must be confusing that people think that I’m saying that Hitler faced hyperinflation as part of his reign vs that Hitler ascended to power by being attributed as the only one who could successfully face hyperinflation.

      Kinda like people were saying, “these are crazy times, we need a crazy leader.”

        Yeah, I totally get it! Very big difference to anyone with half a brain. But the current GOP could easily be seeing it as a checkbox instead of a huge reason for his winning the 1932 election
