I mean it’s quite different. Hitler wasn’t elected (at least not prior to seizing power and effectively banning all opposition). Instead the Nazis got a plurality of just 33% in the Reichstag election, which led to failure to form a government. Then Hitler somehow convinced the center right President to grant him powers which he promptly started abusing and the rest is history.
In other words, 1930s Germany can kind of defend itself in ways the US can’t.
He got elected deomocratically. In the German system, one party gaining the absolute majority is very rare and coalition governments are the norm. The cancellor is usually the candidate of the party with the largest percentage in that coalition. In the case of the NSDAP, that was Hitler. The conservatives formed a coaltion with him because they were sure the conservative president would be able to keep Hitler in check. Unfortunately, said president did the opposite and was instrumental in giving Hitler absolute power.
If you think Hitler was loyal to Eva Braun, we’ve been reading vastly different books.
No, Hitler was just as much a sex pest as any other dictator, and was pretty bad before gaining power. Like targeting 14 year olds, and his 14 year old niece.
But he also had uncontrollable flatulence that could clear a ballroom. Which goes to show that while time travelers couldn’t kill him, they certainly could fuck with him.

Donald Trump just won with a plurality of around 31% of eligible voters
Its nothing like Hitler.
Hitler was a vegetarian, who didn’t drink and smoke, who was loyal to his partner.

Hitler literally injected meat, let’s not put him on any kind of pedestal. These are all myths based on apparently very effective German propaganda.
Also, that guy killed Hitler.
I mean, how can you say support the guy that killed Hitler.
I support that guy’s Hitler killing policy. Just wish he implemented it in 1920 rather than in 1945.
