I heavily dislike the article. It misses at least two points.
One, the Nazi (or rather, the nationalist coalition) was on the decline, as were the conservatives in power, and were set to loose multiple seats in the next elections. Seizing power, fast, was needed.
Two, Hitler used laws set in by the radical center and the conservatives to take power. Yes, he used violence, but the holes that allowed the takeover were set before, by judges and previous governments.

Seizing power, fast, was needed. The Republicans are going to run the US into the ground in the next couple of years. Midterm elections are 2026.
- anthony_d 2y agoOh! How thrilling! Do you have any details about how they’re going to do that?
- mostlysimilar 2y agoSure. Policies that enrich the oligarchs and further erode the quality of life for everyday Americans. They can't help themselves, it's in their blood.
- sofixa 2y agoIt addresses the first point quite well, multiple times (it's even one of the first things discussed in the story, one of Hitler's coalition partners was bound to lose from elections).
