I was not aware of this historical fact. I assume Hitler and/or his barrister/lawyer/solicitor appealed to the Bavarian Supreme Court for the early release.

1. Letting Hitler off the hook worked out so well for the world.

Not.

2. Wonder how his status as a criminal swayed opinion of him.

"In 1923, Hitler enlisted the help of World War I General Erich Ludendorff for an attempted coup known as the "Beer Hall Putsch". The Nazi Party used Italian Fascism as a model for their appearance and policies. Hitler wanted to emulate Benito Mussolini's "March on Rome" of 1922 by staging his own coup in Bavaria, to be followed by a challenge to the government in Berlin."

People who gravitate to the Jesse James, Billy the Kid, or John Dillinger seem willing to forgive criminals like Trump and then actually follow him.

Somehow in the midst of the "Hamilton" phenomenon, our country lost its way. And now we're seeing the Nazi Party rise from the dead as the GOP Zombie Party. With its very own Hitler.
