    Damn shame, in hindesight. A bit more mediocre art on the pile could have spared us the implosion of Central Europe.

      There’s definitely a timeline where he just paints paintings of government buildings to hang inside those buildings

        I think he was more talented at galvanizing an audience than Himmler or Goering, and prettier to look at than Goebbels.

        In the same way Ted Cruz and Ron DeSantis will never draw the same crowds as Trump, The Dolph had that special sauce that congels people around a movement.

        I can see a history in which Rosa Luxembourg was the firebrand that ignited a national movement but doesn’t end up invading Poland over some delusional vision of a New Reich.
