Hitler won his election too. And twice as well. I'm not sure why that makes it okay or Trump not a fascist.
No he didnt, he lost and was later appointed chancellor by the winner.

Hitler was appointed Chancellor in 1933.
He then won yet another election that same year.

Please explain how 1933 comes before 1932.
Never mind figured it out. Good job, or whatever.

He was not elected to president or chancellor however. Feel free to read the above post as you, as always, throw nuance to the wayside for brevity.
That’s because it’s not an elected position. What are you going to reveal to me next, that the UK Prime Minister Kier Starmer wasn’t elected prime minister?
Germany didn’t work like that and still doesn’t.
Not every country is the U.S., believe it or not.
Then how is that relevant to bring up when talking about an elected position like the US president? Who appointed trump president again? Is it the american people?

Then you got into a whole bullshit thing where you pretended that wasn’t true.
You might try some memory exercises or something, but you’re welcome for the refresher.
Cool, and you never try to understand anyone else's point. Have you considered working as a lawyer?
