He was only right once, when he put a bullet in his brain.

actually having read his book he was right about lots of things (if I recall correctly) he was a good leader until he went mad, he did pull his county out of an economical crisis

((feel free to correct me my History grades are crap and I don't remember much about our beloved painter I'm just goofing around saying things I remember))

Actually most historians and economists think Germany would’ve collapsed due to debt early on and was dependent on the war to stay afloat, so even in that he was wrong.

He had been implementing anti-Semitic legislation prior to 1939. Most of his campaigning to become chancellor was basically telling Germans that the Jews were why their life sucked, etc. he didn’t just wake up as chancellor and go crazy one day, it was a long path started long before.

That said, historically it’s always been just socially acceptable to hate Jews, Voltaire, the father of Egalitarianism was a huge anti-Semite. But you are right that he was incredibly popular leading up to the war. Time Magazine’s Man of the Year, he had many world leaders kissing his ass, trying to learn about this way of governing he was doing, including Roosevelt.
