    I'd need to have much more of a background in that era of Germany to start speculating like that. We might as well talk about Hitler being accepted into Art School or whatever that butterfly effect idea was.

      Choosing to support the right wing guy, Hindenburg, that didn't really believe in democracy who in less than 2 years later appoints the guy who ends democracy is not a big stretch of cause and effect.

        I’m saying I am not familiar enough with the party structure and how collations needed to be formed to be comfortable to speculate. You may be right, you may be wrong. I don’t know. You’re not the first person I’ve seen say it.
