As I see it was the victors of WW1 made it easy for a man like Hitler to get to power
Treaty of Versailles left Germany a broken nation and humiliated
Up pops Hitler with his lets blame the commies and the Jews
Add to that he starts rebuilding the armed forces - against the treaty - and providing some sort of hope , result - the German nation was hooked
Once he had the power it was easy to control it with his own loyal organizations
A couple of simple operations to regain former territories taken by the treaty and the man is seen as a great leader that will lead the Germans to glory again
The rest is history
My tuppence worth
